  • Night of Many Bottles

There are also pre-conference and post-conference excursions available for anyone arriving early or staying late.

And at at cost of only $120 for “citizen bloggers” that’s still a great deal for a conference with as much as you get from this one.

I’m looking forward to attending this year… see you there?
