Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Perl, Ajax, yum. Wish I was there. Are you working?

OSCON, O'Reilly's Open Source Convention, is in Portland, OR, my hometown. There are a few thousand geeks here doing the Perl thing. The Ruby thing. The Python thing. Talking and learning about databases like PostgresQL and MySQL. There's also AJAX, Apache, and ANT. All manner of geekish stuff.

Here's the [freaking huge] schedule: http://conferences.oreillynet.com/os2006/grid/

Ajax commenting? Hot! I've had to discipline myself into waiting for the video to end before jumping.

Also, I consider this cartoon to be like what VS et al are all about. Check it out before it 'expires' and you can't see it anymore... http://www.comics.com/comics/cowandboy/archive/images/cowandboy21831960060417.gif

Also, some other features like spell-check and ajax commenting (so you can post comments without interrupting the video) are in the works.
