Reason #1,001 to go to Vancouver in February
Marty October 7th, 2008
In addition to the obvious skiing thing, my boss Dante is going to be presenting at the Interaction ‘09 conference next year. It’s a cool subject (at least for our IA/UX geeks), and Vancouver + February means snow. Now if I can just figure out a way to afford the trip…

Having to pay to see your boss speak at a convention seems awfully backwards. Maybe the company will spring for it?
yeah seriously, that’s crap
I wish - at $600 a pop plus airfare/hotel, it’s a little steep for them to pay for me to go. Hopefully, they’ll pay for HIM to go, since he’s a presenter. Unfortunately, as an industry, the IA-UX world is a little less well-funded than Google-like enterprises, and they aren’t paying for the speakers to come to the conference, so it’s up to the speakers themselves to do. At least, the sub-speakers that is: the big names probably get paid for since they are the draws to the conference in the first place.
