The first Codemash conference was held in January 2007 and it was awesome.  As I read over my posts from last year, I can’t wait to attend Codemash v2.0.0.8. 

This is what I wrote at the end of last year’s Codemash:

“The organizers of CodeMash did an oustanding job.  As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, the venue was great, the speakers were awesome and the sessions were jam packed with good stuff.  As I told Jim after his “Open Source” talk on Friday, this was definitely another home run.

If you missed CodeMash, you missed a great opportunity not only to learn about cool technology, but to network with peers.  While I’m not necessarily a social butterfly, it was nice to talk to Jim, Jason, Dave and Dan again.  The guys and gals from Pillar were great (mmm…..gotta love a booth that has Hershey’s miniatures) as were the guys I talked to from Sogeti.

I can’t wait for CodeMash 2008! “

While much of my time last year was spent stressing about job interviews, I’m really looking forward to making the most of my time at the Kalahari (although you probably won’t catch me near the water).

While I know the content is going to be great, I’m really looking forward to seeing the usual suspects again (Jason, Dan, Joe….) and meeting new people. 

After looking over the current schedule, some tough decisions are going to have to be made so hopefully there’s lots of blogging/twittering going on.
