Going to the New England Software Symposium

I will be attending the New England Software Symposium this weekend, and I am really looking forward to it. Unlike most tech conferences I've been to, this one is actually held over a weekend. The advantage to this is that it allows participants -- both attendees and speakers -- to participate without sacrificing productive time. I suspect this made it easier for me to get approval from my boss. I sacrifice family and personal time, but the sessions look really valuable. I hope to blog a bit about the topics discussed there.
