360Flex 2011 – Unconferences rock!

You know what’s better than all the content we’ve got on tap for 360|Flex 2011? Adding a few more sessions on Monday thanks to the Rocky Mountain Adobe User Group (RMAUG) (that link will take you to the schedule), that’s what.

We could fill a week or two with the great submissions we got for 360|Flex 2011, but unfortunately only have so much room. Luckily the RMAUG crew is hosting a few of those sessions we couldn’t accept in a special 1 day only add on room on Monday. Go check out the line up!

Just another reason your money and the experience itself go farther at 360|Flex ;)

 

See you in Denver!

We think this is an awesome deal for those who might not be able to attend MAX or be weighing the cost of traveling to Los Angeles, against the alternatives. 2 events, on the east coast, for a damn good price! (Tho, really both events are priced pretty awesome to begin with! But we thought we’d try to make the choice a no brainer!)

360Flex – 10 awesome facts – Flash Platform Shirt!

I’m not gonna write a bunch about this, because well there’s a video.

So yeah that’s it. There’s three false facts. one per tweet with the hashtag #360flexfacts. First person to get each fact, gets a shirt!

Oh and feel free to join in on the fun and make your own video with 360|Flex Facts, it’s fun!!

360Flex – In pictures

I posted about what you do and don’t get, and we’ve done more posts than I can count on the overall vibe, and the parties etc. So I wanted to take a minute to just post some pictures. I grabbed these off of flickr.

That’s just a few. Some 1200 pics are on flickr right now for 360|Flex. We’ll get that number higher :)

Hopefully that shows you a little bit of what we’re talking about when we talk about the people, the parties, and everything else that makes people say “Here’s what I love about the 360Flex conferences: even if you didn’t attend a single session it’s worth the time and money to attend. The conversations with other developers in the hallways, at lunch/dinner, at the bars in the evenings is just as educational and of course more fun” Dan Florio

Imagine if you attended some sessions ;)

360|Flex Send a Team or an Army

According to SeaWorld (Fun Fact #6), a group of frogs is called an army. Therefore, since Ribbit is sending 8 folks to the conference, that makes them the official Army of 360|Flex. We’re thinking of making battle shields or at last some sweet looking uniforms. :)

John and I set up many goals for ourselves with 360|Flex. One of which was, “Why should only one team member get to go to a conference? Why can’t conferences be more affordable so a team (or an army) from a company can attend?”

With over 47 sessions (on top of some great free training on Sunday, more of which we’ll be announcing soon), it would be impossible for one person to soak in all the information that 360|Flex has to offer. We’re happy to see that great companies, like Ribbit, are recognizing the value of sending more than just a token team member. (Sidenote: if you have not seen what Ribbit can do for you, go now. Ribbit is a great and simple way to add live voice communication to your applications.)

Let’s run the numbers quickly: 8 people = 2 team rates = $3K

$3000 for 8 tickets to a show that people love and lives the new standard of what a conference should be. There are some other groups coming out to visit us. If you’re part of one of those groups, drop us a line at info@360flex.com. Tell us why you’re sending more than one person. Tell us whether or not you like that you can afford to send more than one person.

We just got word yesterday that another company is sending 10 people. With registrations like that happening, you better book your ticket soon. Remember, the eBay Conference Center has a maximum capacity and when it’s sold out, it’s sold out. We legally can’t allow any more in than that. Book your ticket today to avoid your heartache later.

Speaking of Ribbit, expect to hear some more great news in relation to them and 360|Flex soon. It’s another reason why you want to buy your ticket now.
