Ian FieldhouseConferences, Web Apps No Comments

This Friday I'll be attending the d.Construct 2006 Conference in Brighton. d.Construct is best explained by the following quote from this year's website:

d.Construct is an affordable, one-day conference aimed at those building the latest generation of web-based applications. The event discusses how new technology is transforming the web from a document delivery system into an application platform.

All the sessions look really interesting but I'm particularly looking forward to Derek Featherstone's session on ‘Accessible Web Applications in a Post Web 1.0 World’ and Thomas Vander Wal's session on ‘Understanding Folksonomy (Tagging that Works)’ as these two sessions are most likely to influence how I go about my day to day work.I noticed on the Backnetwork that I've had my profile pimped by fellow Scot, Gavin Montague. Thanks for the plug Gavin I owe you a pint and obviously, being a true Scot, it will be from the free bar at the after-party. ;-) Talking of socialising I'll hopefully be attending the pre-conference get together at Heist if I have time so hope to bump into some of those attending there.
