Mezzoblue designer Dave Shea speaks about the pleasures and pain of running a huge event like Web Directions North.
After the first year in 2007 I had suspicions, then the frenzy of activity leading up to the second year in early 2008 really confirmed it: running an event of this size is a full time job, and it’s not the sort of work I want to be doing long term.
Dave also includes a $50 off code if you are planning on hitting the event next year in Denver.
Featuring over 750 webmasters and a large number of Googlers from around the world, hundreds of questions, and over one hundred answers over the course of nearly two hours.
Google gives a short wrap up of their recent webmasters event. Check out their slideshow presentations on “Frightening Webmastering Myths”, “Using the Not Found errors report in Webmaster Tools”, and “Where We’re Coming From.”
Web Directions North returns for 2009 – this year in Denver, Colorado, February 2—7.

We’ve kept the prices the same for the second year in a row – register for the conference by December 5 for just $795, and half day workshops for just $195 (for conference attendees).

The massive web design conference – An Event Apart – has added Seattle, Boston, and San Francisco to the 2009 schedule. The sold-out Chicago show runs next week, so this may give you an opportunity to hit up the conference at one of the added locations.
There are plenty of great speakers planned including, CSS Zen Garden founder Dave Shea, web guru Andy Clarke, and snappy dresser Jeremy Keith.
The grand-daddy of web design blogs – A List Apart – is running its fourth and final An Event Apart web design conference of 2008 in Chicago over October 13 & 14.
At five bucks short of a thousand, it’s not the cheapest event to go to, and if you buy your tickets at the door add an extra hundred to make it $1095. Still they do have a quality line up of speakers including Jason Fried of 37Signals, Cameron Moll and Jeffrey Zeldman amongst others.
