by kai on 09/07/2010

You might have heard that our antipodean version of cf.Objective - coincidentally named cf.Objective(ANZ) - is coming back again in 2010. After the very successful first run in 2009, we're going to be back to Melbourne on November 18 & 19, 2010 for two days on advanced CF content, networking with attendees and presenters from all over the world. We've got a pretty awesome speaker lineup…

Speaking at webDU 2010 (May 6 and 7 2010, Bondi Beach)

by kai on 26/02/2010

I'm again speaking at this year's webDU (and it's going to be the 8th time in a row - I think the only other people who have presented at each MXDU/webDU since it started in 2003 are Andrew Muller and Mr. Geoff Bowers himself now, yay!). BTW: Did everyone realise that the registration for webDU 2010 is open and that the Early Bird price (AU$ 695 is really a bargain for the two days) runs out on…

My personal review of Webstock 2010 – (part III: conference proper Friday)

by kai on 23/02/2010

This is the final post of the Webstock 2010 series. It's covering Friday of "conference proper". The day started with a nice breakfast at Finc (not part of the official Webstock agenda though) and a way too cold auditorium in the Town Hall. But Internet was fixed again and it seemed as if most people were able to login to the Wifi again. The Friday sessions: Eric Ries - The Lean Startup My…

My personal review of Webstock 2010 – (part II: conference proper Thursday)

by kai on 22/02/2010

This second part of my Webstock 2010 review briefly covers the conference sessions on Thursday and some other bits and pieces around it. Webstock 2010 was again held in Wellington's Town Hall - the historic and classic style of the building really lends itself to an event like Webstock and if it was mine I wouldn't move it anywhere else either. Most of the conference is run as a single stream of…

My personal review of Webstock 2010 - (part I: workshops)

by kai on 22/02/2010

Last week Wellington's IT and web crowd celebrated the annual Webstock week. You'd think that at the end of the day, Webstock is just another conference - but that would be quite of an understatement and completely miss the point. First of all, Webstock runs for pretty much a full week: Monday to Wednesday are filled with a bunch of 1/2-day or full-day workshops (to be booked and paid for on top…

Speaking at Flash Platform User Group Wellington (New Zealand)

by kai on 05/02/2010

After the XMas break is now finally over and summer has arrived in Wellington, we're starting the monthly meetings of the Flash Platform User Group again. Actually we were known as the Flex User Group but went through a bit of self-finding and re-branding and the outcome is a broader focus on the overall Flash Platform. That also includes Flash, AIR, Flash Catalyst and associated things like the…

Webinale 2010

by kai on 29/01/2010

Yay, Webinale 2010 in Berlin is on again (31/05 - 02/06) and I'm going to be hosting and moderating the RIA day at the conference. I'm quite happy and proud to have put together a super-interesting agenda (tentatively) with a quite international bouquet of speakers (in fact: Australia, New Zealand, France and Germany :-) 1. Kai Koenig: Wieviel RIA braucht der Mensch? (@agentk) 2. Thibault Imbert:…
