It's even worse than it appears.

  • I was invited to Newsgeist this year, and accepted. #
  • It's a virtual conference, so no travel is involved.#
  • The conference is split in two parts, Ignite and Discussion. Each set of sessions is split into four groups, for various time zones around the world. #
  • The official calendar is hard to figure out because they don't translate all the times into my home timezone which is Eastern Time in the US. So I did a little table with the times in my timezone. You can easily translate to yours, I hope. #
  • Ignite sessions#
    • APAC -- May 17, 5AM ET#
    • LATAM -- May 18, 4PM ET#
    • EMEA -- May 19, 11AM ET#
    • North America -- May 20, 5PM ET#
  • Discussion sessions#
    • APAC -- June 14, 10:30AM ET#
    • LATAM -- June 15, 9:30AM ET#
    • EMEA -- June 16, 4:30AM ET#
    • North America -- June 17, 11:30AM ET#
  • The only hard ones to figure out were the APAC times, which are in SGT, which is 12 hours ahead of Eastern time.#
  • If you see errors, let me know! ;-)#

You know those obnoxious sites that pop up dialogs when they think you're about to leave, asking you to subscribe to their email newsletter? Well that won't do for Scripting News readers who are a discerning lot, very loyal, but that wouldn't last long if I did rude stuff like that. So here I am at the bottom of the page quietly encouraging you to sign up for the nightly email. It's got everything from the previous day on Scripting, plus the contents of the linkblog and who knows what else we'll get in there. People really love it. I wish I had done it sooner. And every email has an unsub link so if you want to get out, you can, easily -- no questions asked, and no follow-ups. Go ahead and do it, you won't be sorry! :-)
