I think interaction08 is really going to be amazing. I'm not just saying that b/c I've put in 100's of hours into its creation (See Dan's recent interview on Boxes & Arrows for more: http://www.boxesandarrows.com/view/interactions-08-in
I'm saying it because I look at the content, format, setting, and people and I can't really imagine a better conference. For people in NYC, I'm putting my money where my mouth is on this one as well. Register at tomorrow night's holiday part (http://ixda.org/discuss.php?post=23021) and I buy you a drink. I explain why I feel so strongly in my blog: http://synapticburn.com/more.php?id=273_0_1_0_C There are lots of other options out there. I think the corporate conferences though right now tend to be better than the rest of the organizational conferences. UIE puts on a heck of a show and I have only hears amazing things about Adaptive Path's stuff and good things about NN/G's stuff. If I had to go the organizational route, IA Summit for webbies is great. And I mean, It's Miami this year!!!! Not Florence, but definitely better than most other places. Further afield and more HCI is DIS, and then there are the many many other sigchi sponsored conferences. Yes, UPA is missing from my list. Never been, never heard great things about it except from those who belong to that community already. Community is a great reason to go to a conference, BTW. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
