Gnomedex 2002

So what are YOU doing on August 23rd and 24th this year? I hope to be at Gnomedex 2002! I missed going last year because of a conflict (waa!) but the Pocket PC people who went had a blast and I hope to be with them this year. Registration is a paltry $99, and the hotels in Des Moines, Iowa are what you'd call "inexpensive". Derek Brown from Microsoft's Mobility Team will be presenting again this year, and I believe they'll have some hands-on time with Pocket PCs. And by August, who knows what wondrous toys they'll have? Other guest speakers include Blogger.com's Evan Williams and Phil "Pud" Kaplan, creator of F---edCompany.com. I'll know whether or not I'm going for sure as the event gets closer, but it would be great to see some of you there!
Other notes about the conference:
• Leo Laporte of TechTV is joining us at Gnomedex as this year's keynote speaker!
• Steve Gibson of GRC and Mark Thompson of Analog X will be joining us again this year!
• Online Tonight is making a return! David, Lili, and the Miss Gnomedex 2002 contest!
• Forget the shuttle bus this year. Everything will happen at the Downtown Marriott!
• We're going to let you sleep later. You can thank Mark Thompson for the extra "snooze allowance" in this year's schedule!
