Atlanta had a lot of first time events in 2007 with a number of them being unconferences. The first new conference that I can remember for 2007 was SoCon 07. For a first time event, things ran pretty well. There were some random issues but nothing that Jeff Haynie and the crew didn’t realize themselves. Well, SoCon is back again for 2008. The one big change I can see this year is that there is a registration fee to attend (not outrageous, just $15) and the opening dinner is at a nice restaurant (Maggiano’s - kudos, family style dinner there rocks!). If you go to both, the cost is a pretty reasonable $43 (for early registrations, it’s $63 for late registrations). I unfortunately won’t be able to make the opening dinner this year but I’m hoping to attend the conference on Saturday. The event runs from February 8th (opening dinner) to the 9th (full day conference). If you’re there, make sure you come up and say hi.
