Olson’s Observations

Since early bird registration for the Web 2.0 Expo ends today I thought I would go ahead and remind all of you that you need to check this conference out. My buddy Dave McClure is one of the co-chairs for this event and has spent the last six months lining up great speakers to make sure you get your money’s worth.

This conference is about learning how to do Web 2.0, not just hearing people talk about what it is, which is why I am a big fan. They have seven education tracks for geeks, designers, entrepreneurs and all the other types of folks that have a hand in building the next version of the Web.

The cost is always a concern so it’s good to know that there are discounts for students, educators, etc. There is even a free track for those of us who can’t afford anything but want to take part called Web2.Open. That is a nice touch!

If you are willing to break out the credit card before the day is out (Monday - the 12th that is) you can save $200. But wait, there’s more! If you use this code - webex07mk35 - you’ll get another $100 off for a total of $300 off the ticket price.

Basically, register today if you’re pretty sure you’re going to go since you’ll save big bucks.

If those reasons to attend weren’t enough for you I should note that I am pretty sure I am going to make it out for the expo and our own Don Loeb is speaking which means they’ll be some FeedBurner schwag floating around for ya. For more on the conference and the different tracks check out Dave’s blog. Hopefully I’ll see you all in San Francisco in a month!

Side note: If you’re going please drop me a line and we’ll meet-up.
