I thought now would be a good time for an update here on the Strange
Loop conference - http://thestrangeloop.com

The early bird deadline is just 2 weeks away on July 8th, when the
base price will go from $250 to $325.

There are several Clojure-related workshops that are full or almost
full:
- Stuart Sierra - Intro to Clojure - 2 spots left
- Aaron Bedra - Clojure Analytics with Incanter - FULL
- Nathan Marz - Cascalog - 16 spots left
- Phil "technomancy" Hagelberg - Emacs - 18 spots left

The Strange Loop keynotes this year will be:
- Rich Hickey - who needs no introduction
- Gerald Sussman - co-author of SICP and creator of Scheme
- Erik Meijer - known for Haskell 98, LINQ in .NET, etc
- Allen Wirfs-Brock - early Smalltalk implementer and currently a
Mozilla fellow

The full list of sessions (minus a couple still waiting to be
confirmed) is available at:
- http://thestrangeloop.com/sessions

I'm very proud of the program and think it's a great event at a great
value. Some other talks I'd like to highlight that you might be
interested in:
- Steve Yegge - "Connecting Every Line of Code in the World"
- Nathan Marz - "The Secrets of Building Realtime Big Data Systems"
- Nate Young - "Parser Combinators: How to Parse (nearly)
Anything" (Clojure, Haskell)
- Jim Duey - "Monads Made Easy" (Clojure)
- Zach Tellman - "Event-Driven Programming in Clojure"
- Rich Hickey and Jeff Brown - "Learn to Play Go"
- Language panel - all our keynote speakers plus Andrei Alexandrescu
(D) and Joe Pamer (F#), moderated by Dean Wampler

There are of course many other talks about Scala, Go, Haskell, Erlang,
Mirah, D, Hadoop, Cassandra, Riak, Couch, Neo4J, iOS, Android, FP,
HTML 5, JavaScript, concurrency and more more more.
