Python programmers, Consultants and Job Seekers,
Today's the last day of early bird pricing for DjangoCon, the
world-wide Django conference, which is in Philly this year!
With the $50 early-bird discount, this 6-day event costs only
$295 (individual), $495 (corporate), with a student/diversity
price of only $195. For those of us who are local, with no
airfare or hotel costs, that's dirt cheap.
It's a great place to dive deep into the Web framework that you've
come to know and love, or to get a jumpstart on a new technology
that you've been dying to learn.
I've been using Python/Django for nearly 4 years. I'm a huge fan.

Register now to attend.
Or sign up to be a speaker and attend for free. There's a team
of speaker mentors if you have good info to share but are not
comfortable speaking to a large crowd. They can help you with
proposing, preparing and presenting your talk.
Or sign up as a volunteer like me to:
- Review talks and tutorials
- Spread the word

- Run sessions, helping the speaker and attendees with logistics
- Man the registration desk
- Stuff swag bags
For those of you new to Django, here's what I like about it:
- MVC Framework (models, templates, views)
- ORM, DB migrations, syncdb, inspectdb
- Makes simple things easy, and complex things possible
- Automatic data validation
- Automated regression tests
- Middleware
- VERY friendly and helpful user community
