BFusion/Bflex Conference 2008

In a couple weeks (September 6th and 7th) I will be attending BFusion/BFlex '08--a free ColdFusion/Flex conference in Bloomingon, Indiana, a mere 3 hour drive from Dayton. This is two whole days of free training from some of the top peeps in the biz and includes a free catered lunch! The only thing attendees have to pay for is gas, hotel rooms, and morning/evening meals. That's the only real catch--hotel rooms in Bloomington are surprisingly expensive. I about fell over when I found out the normal price of the Courtyard Marriot, which is the conference hotel. Even with the "conference rate" it is still pretty expensive, but I think the conference will be worth it.

Apparently, this conference first started last year and had 80 attendees, but I had never heard of it before (which was surprising to me). According to the latest blog post on their site, there are already 400 people signed up (200 is the max they have budgeted). They have started a wait list for people now in case others drop off.

I am very happy to see such a huge interest in ColdFusion/Flex so close to home, and I'm really looking forward to this event and think it will be a good one. As usual, I will be blogging and Twittering live from the conference as soon as I get there. Stay tuned!
