Webjam Sept 2007

If you are a regular reader of this blog, you will know that it is now conference season here in Australia. Over the next two weeks or so you are going to be getting nothing but posts on conference related activities. Sorry if this isn’t not what you were expecting.

Presently I’m in the belly of a 737-700 just crossing the eastern side of the Great Australian Bight on my way to Sydney for Oz-IA 2008 and Web Directions South 2008. This year there is yet again another special event, besides the traditional Port80 meetup on the eve before Web Directions South (proper). Yes its WebJam time again, that crazy time when 18 or so web peeps take to the stage and delivery what can only be described as a roller coaster of information in 3 minutes or less.

AWIA Port80 Sydney Meetup

The Australian Web Industry Association have been months in intense planning,  endless rehearsals,  mock operations, countless hours of covert information gathering have gone into yet another year’s Operation Port80 – Sydney,  (well would you believe a few minutes via email).

Following on from the intense pizza inspired discussions at the Pumphouse in 2006 and the challenging quiz night of the Quarryman in 2007 we are now having another Port 80 on the evening before Web Directions 2008.

This  seems to be coming a bit of a tradition with the decent of the Perth Port 80 Posse on the humble town of Sydney, and why should 2008 be any different.
