Just got an email from my friend Colin which said he is going to be a speaker at Flash Forward. This time around it is being held in Boston.. and you know I won’t be missing it. The conference overall looks like a great one and I look forward to attending these great sessions, it is going to take great skill in order to plan the classes I want to attend.
Adobe just releasing the CS3 Suite not too long ago will prove to be very interesting since I am almost positive the focus will be Actionscript 3, as it should be.
I will be posting updates from the show and also an overall review once I get back. For that matter I actually have a few great conferences and trips coming up in the coming months. Photoshop World in Vegas, Flash Forward in Boston and PhotoPlus Expo in New York.. this should be a year packed with a lot of conferences and a lot of photo-ops.
After getting a few good gigs over the last few months I have decided to take a bit of a vacation in July to visit my family in Florida. Picking dates to take off was hard enough, but booking the flight has proven to be a challenge as well. It used to be a matter logging into expedia and entering the date, but now with Aggregators (ex: Kayak.com) you can spend a lot of time getting the “best deal”.
Overall the experience on these sites work out to be beneficial but sometimes it pays to book from the chosen airlines site. In the case of Jet Blue you get double reward points for booking through jetblue.com which in turn results in a free flight down the road.
What websites do you use to book and does anyone still visit a booking agent? Oh and for your booking convenience here is a few good links.
Aggregators:
Kayak | Farechase
Booking Sites (old school):
Expedia | Orbitz | Hotwire | Cheaptickets | Priceline
Airline Sites:
