Fancy a Trip to New Zealand that combines learning about new Web Technologies with Skiing??? Web on The Piste is open for registrations now!! Aussies Welcome :-)
One of our Web partners, Gruden, approched me recently about sponsoring their second annual "Web on the Piste" conference, to be held in NZ in August. We sponsored it last year and whilst I didn't manage to get it past my Manager to attend... by all reports from my Microsoft NZ counterparts, it was a great event - on and off the slopes. I'm not sure that I'll get along this year either - Web Evangelist Mike Kordahi is scheduled to present, but, why spoil the fun for everyone else just because I can't go??
It's not all skiing though, there will be a 2 day conference packed with content about creating Rich Internet Applications, usability and most importantly - Microsoft and Adobe playing happily together :-) awww!! When don't we?? Presenting 24 top local and international speakers, an amazing location and great social events, Web on the Piste is shaping up to be the must-attend conference of the year.
Of course it's no coincidence that it's being held in the height of the ski season in picturesque Queenstown NZ, where there are numerous ski fields, jet boat rides, bungee jumping, paragliding and many more fun activities to do prior and post conference. Visit www.webonthepiste.com for more information and to register. Might event see you there ;-)! Fin
