In just under a month, the amazing Tom and John will, once again, orchestrate what is sure to be an amazing conference. If you have any desire at all to improve your Flex skills, meet fellow developers, find a Flex job, hire a Flex developer or just have a really good time with lots of smart, cool people you should definitely attend. For $480 you can’t beat it with a stick.

As the title implies, I will be speaking at the conference. My session is titled “Creating Flexible Components for Reuse and Distribution” and will discuss just that. I will be covering considerations and practices that are useful when you want to create something that will be useful beyond your immediate need or project. Most of the main ideas will be accompanied by examples from flexmdi since reuse and flexibility were main goals of the project, but the concepts will definitely be widely applicable. I would consider it an intermediate level session so you don’t need to be a guru to attend, but hopefully the content will be interesting to developers of all skill levels, including you rock stars out there. Last time I checked I was speaking opposite Ben Forta so if you’re a CFer I will understand if I don’t see you. Otherwise come join me! The session will be pretty free-form and casual; if people want to shout out questions (or insults, whatever) in the middle thats fine by me. In fact, I hope there will be audience participation in the form of questions, comments, alternative approaches, etc. Should be a good time.

So I hope to see you in the audience, but even more so I hope to see you at the conference. Tom and John put on amazing events, have amazing passion for our industry and deserve nothing less than a stellar turnout. If you’ve never been to a 360 event, you owe it to yourself to experience it firsthand. Its awful friggin’ cool. So come out, learn something, meet someone or just enjoy the ATL. I promise you won’t regret it.
