What sessions would YOU like to see that we maybe didn’t touch on this time?

What Else to Do

Sep 10, 2008

There are about 15 tickets left, so if you know anyone who is still deciding if they want to come, they should decide SOON and get a ticket NOW. And if you’re looking for more reasons to come…

After the EERoadshow ends, there will be the opening party for BarCampVancouver, which is a gathering of tech geeks in a self-organizing conference format. Well worth attending. http://barcamp.org/BarCampVancouver2008

BarCamp continues the next day, but if that’s not your cup o’ tea, you can watch the BC Lions (a Canadian football team) play on Saturday night, or if you’re as uninterested in football as I am, you can head to the Summer Night Market in Richmond, Summer Market.

For musical entertainment, go see one of the great bands at the Railway Club in downtown www.therailwayclub.com or catch the Beach Boys in concert at the River Rock Casino.

You can also catch the last Sins of the City walking tour of the season at 4 pm on Saturday afternoon, if you reserve in advance: www.vancouverpolicemuseum.ca

Does anyone need help finding a place to stay or eat? We’ve got suggestions, just ask.

In fact, if you have any questions at all about the event, or suggestions for next time or just want to spout off, drop us a line! This is your event, we’re just arranging it.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions, duh)

Aug 22, 2008

Q: The most common question asked so far: Does this mean EE 2.0 will be announced by the 26th of September?

A: We really, really don’t know. We chose the date because it was handy for us. And we don’t work for EllisLab so we have no inside knowledge. We kinda sorta hoped it would be announced by then—end of summer and all—but that wasn’t our main reason for choosing that date.

Q: Learning EE is great, but it’s a long way from where I live. Are there any other good reasons for coming at that time?

A: BarCamp Vancouver is happening the day after (on Saturday). There’s a blogger meetup happening Thursday night. So yeah, come for one, stay for them all!

Add your questions below, we’ll answer them ASAP.

Can’t Make It This Time?

Aug 22, 2008

If you can’t make it to this EE Roadshow, let us know in the comments where you live, and we’ll think about putting one together for you!

Rick Rolling

Aug 12, 2008

It’s all coming together.

One of the guests we were hoping would attend most is coming to the EE Roadshow. CEO Rick Ellis of EllisLab confirmed today that he’ll be here for the Roadshow on September 26.

And while it’s still only rumour that an additional someone from EllisLab may be making the trip up here with him, we’d double our pleasure and double the fun if it were true.

Tickets have started selling, so don’t miss out.
