There is an Open Web Conference happening in town!

The Open Web is a conference showcasing open source technologies, communities and culture. We are featuring talks from all areas of open source technologies such as PHP, Python, Ruby on Rails, XUL, GPL, Linux, Django, Drupal, HTML, CSS, Javascript and AJAX, XML, Apache, MySQL, Web 2.0, etc.

Unlike the other major conferences, this event is community driven and run by volunteers. This isn’t the first Open Web Conference happening, and in the past it has attracted many audiences from all over the world, and  have featured the biggest names in PHP and related topics and technologies.

Vancouver Open Web Conference

This event will be happening from Monday April 14 - Tuesday April 15th 2008 at the Vancouver Convention & Exhibition Centre (VCEC), 999 Canada Place which is the largest conference facility in downtown Vancouver, located in the spectacular inner harbour.

The conference will open with a keynote session featuring Tim Bray from Sun Microsystems, the Co-Inventor of XML, and Zak Greant from Mozilla Foundation and Foo Associates.

In addition to our three tracks of presentations on both days of the conference, there will be time allocated for attendees to give short talks on topics of interest in a ‘Lightning Talk’ format.

The Open Web is a presentation of the Vancouver PHP Users Association, a registered non-profit association for the advancement of PHP and the Open Web. Tazzu is one of the Media sponsors for this great event, looking forward to see you there.
