I've been at Webstock all morning here in the lovely Wellington. I'm staying at Nomads which is just across the road from the venue (Wellington Old Town Hall) so It's pretty convenient for me. Running out of internet credit so I can't really make a big post until I'm back in Auckland.
The team at Web Standards New Zealand have put together a conference for this May called Webstock. Unlike last year's WE05, I will be at Webstock and I'm really looking forward to it. Douglas Bowman, Kelly Goto and Joe Clark are all going to be giving presentations.
I recently attempted to make my way to WE05. I held out hope of getting their for as long as humanly possible but I'm afraid that I won't be making it this year. I do however have 12 months to save for my trip to WE06. Interestingly enough the domain we06.com has been registered for some Harvard Glider project so it may not be called WE06.
A couple of months ago I considered attending Web Essentials 2005 but decided that like most students, I just can't afford it. I've since decided that this is something that I really need to attend, and it's in just under two months. WE05 will be a great chance to make some great contacts in the web-standards world and do some serious learning from the greats who will be presenting.
