An Event Apart: Seattle 2011
I'm excited to announce that I'll be unavailable Monday, March 28 through Wednesday, March 30! But for good reason: 3 days of design, code and content at An Event Apart web design conference in Seattle. An Event Apart is put on by some of the web's most formidable design and development gurus and I'll be attending to glean and extrapolate everything I can in order to keep up with the latest standards and practices. All of this, of course, is to benefit my clients.
I am most excited to learn more about mobile web development strategies and practices. As many of my clients and friends know I am a huge gadget nerd, and that the iPhone is the single best gadget ever invented. With mobile web traffic increasing every day and more people surfing on their iPhone, iPad or Android devices I want to make sure that my clients will have the choice of optimizing their website for viewing on these magical gadgets.
So, want to follow along? I'll be posting updates to my twitter account as they happen, and checking in on Gowalla. I'm very excited for the conference, and more excited for my clients and future clients.
Finally, the good folks at Squarespace are hooking me up with stickers and t-shirts to hand out. Follow me on Twitter to find out where I am, shoot me a direct message and I'll hook you up (while supplies last of course)!

I had a great time at the event. I met lots of great people from all over the country, and even a fantastic guy from New Zealand. The speakers were fantastic and I certainly learned quite a bit about user interface and user experience design.
