I can’t tell you how excited I am that we are only a week away from the start of the User Interface 11 Conference. There’ll be more than 400 attendees from all over the world. There are folks coming from Africa, Europe, Asia, and North America.
Strangely enough, I failed to mention this before now – maybe it’s because I don’t have enough work to do.
That aside, I thought I’d fill you in on where I’ll be when I get there.

One session I will sadly miss is:

I would love to go to this, but instead I’m planning on reading his book and have been keeping up on his usability blog – Functioning Form. Hopefully I’ll be fortunate enough to share a few ideas with him if I can catch him.
This will be the first time attending this conference and I have huge aspirations to network and absorb as much as possible during the short stay. Then the fun begins when I get to apply all the knowledge into development.
I’m excited you’re going to be there too. Make sure you find me and say hi.
It’s going to be a really fun conference.

I am jealous, this looks like a great conference.
