Well, I didn’t get to speak at MIX 2011 as neither of my Open Call submissions got enough votes. However, there are some most excellent closer-to-home venues I’ll be presenting at in the not to distant future:
Deeper in .NET 2011

Well, it’s been a couple of years, but Milwaukee is going to have an awesome code camp again. This is going to be an awesome event with Mads Kristensen, Jay Schmelzer, Joe Stagner, Rocky Lhotka and.. me! (Me?)How I get to take the stage next to giants like these guys remains a mystery but I have to thank the organizers for making room for a home-town presenter.
Fox Valley Day of .NET

I think this will be my third year in a row speaking at this event. Wow am I getting old. The guys in the Fox Valley have really created a fantastic community up there. The Fox Valley guys are cutting edge, busy, and bigger than most people down in the Metro Milwaukee area realize. Not only is this a great event every year but they take great care of the speakers. <Beer/> I'm definitely looking forward to this event.
It’s too bad that, at this event, I’m going to have to make some tough decisions. My compatriots from the Madison area, Lance Larsen and Travis Feirtag, are both giving great talks at the same time. I can’t see Scott Seely’s talk because he’s in the same slot as me. Maybe we can get the guys to record the sessions this year?
