Clearly the Mesh Conference is already a success since they are being lampooned like this! Most excellent satire. Wish I could go to both!

The Mesh Conference schedule was announced today. There's even some western Canadian people like Michael Tippett, Tris Hussey and Paul Kedrosky, cool (hey what about Boris, Alex, Dick, etc. like I suggested in my previous Mesh Conference post?)! Looks like a great conference if you can afford the time and the dineros :-) ! I will be in town for the low budget but high value BarCamp Tdot and Drupal Camp Toronto and will NOT be going to Mesh. However, some of the other Bryght guys will probably go so we'll have the whole crazy Canadian Web 2.0 conference week covered.

Anyways, I am betting that some of the Mesh people will be in town a wee bit beforehand for DrupalCamp or BarCamp Tdot.

I am looking forward to (hopefully) meeting the following people as well as many others at DrupalCamp and BarCamp Tdot (as well as catching up with those I have already met):

• Tara Hunt (I want to be a Pinko marketer!)
• Rick Segal (love your blog and philosophy)
• Alec Saunders (please come down from Ottawa and give us the scoop on Iotum, some sort of demo would be cool. Look forward to perhaps meeting you since I've been reading your stuff since 2003 or earlier)
• Albert Lai (I don't 'get' BubbleShare, but perhaps a cool demo at BarCamp would help. Regardless love the enthusiasm and energy that comes through in your blog!)
• David Crow (hope to get some tips on how to better organize DemoCamp Vancouver, BarCamp Vancouver and perhaps a Vancouver DrupalCamp in the future)
• Brent Ashley (never met but exchanged blog comments over the years ( about his cool BlogChat widget)
• Phillip Smith - man behind DrupalCamp and many other cool things

From yesterday's Drupal consultant conference call, there appears to be a nascent effort underway (thanks to Phillip Smith and others) to have a Drupal-Camp Toronto on Friday May 12 13 12 When it rains it pours! This means that if DrupalCamp happens we will have DrupalCamp on Friday May 12, BarCamp TDot Saturday May 13 and Sunday 14 and then the Toronto Web 2.0 Mesh Conference (Boris's Mesh conference post, my Mesh Conference post) on Monday and Tuesday immediately afterwards. Wow triple conference action! Exhausting but worthwhile!

After all not only is Drupal a great platform for web sites, it's also a great platform for building Web 2.0 web applications so there will be a large overlap between all three events. Now I really want to go!
