Last year's CFUnited was my first. I'd suggest you take notes at the presos, and try not to get overwhelmed. There is a TON of information available, and it can feel like drinking from a fire hose. If you go to the conference and pick up at least two or three major things that improve how you work, I'd consider it a success. For example, you may not be using CFCs. If you get some good advice on using them, and then when you get back you put it into practice, you had a successful conference. Oh, and there's that networking thing. One thing I'm going to do differently this year is not be too worried about attending a session every hour. I would try to hit most of them, but if an hour doesn't have anything interesting, don't feel guilty about hanging out in the common area and chatting with other attendees and/or employees from the big companies. --------------- [INFO] -- Access Manager: This transmission may contain information that is privileged, confidential and/or exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
