So tomorrow I’m headed for Corvallis, Oregon to attend the first ever code4lib conference. It’s been amazing to watch this conference start as a glimmer in the eye of a handful of people in IRC and turn into a real event attended by 80 library technologists from all over the place.

I’m planning on doing a lightning talk or two, and had spent some time preparing some slides which I tossed in the end. I’m going to talk about using eclipse, microformats and object-relational-mapping – hopefully by just doing some live coding. We’ll see how it goes.

I plan on taking some copious notes, so keep your eye on planet.code4lib.org for the play by play.
