Wishing this was like next week or something but I suppose all good things come to those who wait (until 26th – 29th Sept 2010).

The line-up is looking excellent (as usual) and if last year’s event is anything to go by it’s possible that the line-up will pale in comparison to the event as a whole. Turns out that John and the team at FOTB really, seriously know how to put on an event properly… Not kidding.

Close friends will know that I’m very sceptical of industry conferences generally but FOTB is one of the very few exceptions. Whatever the ticket price when you go to buy yours, well it’s worth it. In fact it’s worth double the price or more.

Things that FOTB changes for me about conferences:

  • I never go to sessions at conferences normally (and I mean never…) but I do at FOTB because of the variation and lack of constraints that some confs put on their speakers sometimes. There must be something about John’s attitude to the organisation behind the scenes that empowers speakers to fully let go because the content has been superb previously
  • The atmosphere at the event is almost adrenaline inducing in itself. Euphoric even… Again, credit has to go to the organisation of the outside areas
  • Diversity – the sessions are so diverse and the whole event covers a huge amount of topics where Flash blurs the edges
  • The mornings are as good as the rest of it – I even get to the venue before lunchtime
  • I could go on. I won’t though. Just go grab your ticket (when they go on sale in just over a week’s time) you genuinely won’t regret it.

    Oh, and it’s in Brighton which makes it even better.

    Here’s a short slideshow of some photo’s I’ve taken in previous years:
