The inaugural Joomla!Day USA promises to be something special. Organiser Ryan Ozimek, who is putting together the USA's first Joomla!Day, says the additional appeal of holding the event at the Googleplex has created quite a buzz in the American community.
Ryan today unveiled the registration pages for Joomla!Day USA West and expects the two day event (May 12-13) will draw Joomla! users from throughout the western US to Google in Mountain View, California. "It's highly appropriate we kicked this event off in a significant way, and thanks to Google's generosity we're hoping to fill the available seats pretty fast," he said.
Ryan said the event will be driven by the innovative "un-conference" format, facilitated by Penguin Day creator Allen Gunn, of Aspiration. "Having Allen here to help with the format is going to excite and challenge minds ... and, I hope this will be welcomed as an interesting way to share knowledge and have fun simultaneously."
The Joomla!Day West is limited to 125 seats, so you need to book fast if you want a seat. If you miss out there are two more Joomla!Days planned for the 2007 calendar in the US — Joomla!Day USA Midwest in Austin, TX, and Joomla!Day USA East New York, NY.
Recommended accommodation providers are Wild Palms Hotel or Avante, and more information about accommodation will be provided at the Joomla!Day USA West Web site: http://www.joomladayusa.org .
