darron schall :: application developer specializing in the flash platform

I wanted to mention this awhile ago, but it kept slipping off the radar. I'll be presenting an ActionScript 3 session at the FITC 2006 festival being held in Toronto from April 21st through 23rd. If you're thinking about going, be sure to purchase tickets soon to take advantage of earlybird discount offers. The biggest discount is set to expire January 15th, so get in on the action while you can.

The speaker list this year is incredible as always. I'm really looking forward to getting to connect with a few old friends and making some new ones along the way. While I enjoy attending conferences to learn tips and tricks from the speakers, I also enjoy the networking aspect just as much. Last year's conference was killer, and I expect this year's to be the same.

My presentation is titled ActionScript 3: How low can we go? It's definitely a technical session, but if you're up to some good old fashioned geek fun, I'd love to have you in the audience. I'll be showing some of the cooler super-nerd type features in Flash Player 8.5 that enable applications to be built that weren't possible before. I'm hoping the session will be both educational and inspirational.

Ticket information can be found here. I hope to see you at the end of April!
