The economy is tough and your company doesn't have money for you to travel, so you can't go to any conferences this year, right?
Wrong.
JBoss is getting its "Second Life" on by hosting a purely virtual conference on Feb 11 (it's not actually in Second Life, it's just streaming over the internet). Not only do you save money on airfare and hotel, you don't even have a conference fee to worry about. You just need to sign up, clear your schedule on Feb 11, and e-ttend! There's even going to be a virtual trade show!
The JBoss Virtual Experience 2009

February 11, 8:30am - 6:00pm EST

Pete Muir and I will be co-hosting a session on Seam and Web Beans titled "The future for Seam: Web Beans and beyond". We will address that burning question, how will Seam and Web Beans coexist and what is their relationship? For those of you who have not yet looked into Web Beans, this is your chance for a gentle introduction.
In other news, Web Beans is now "the spec formally known as Web Beans." Find out by reading
this blog entry what it will be called when it becomes an official part of the
Java EE 6 platform and the reason for the name change. Mark my
word, this is a great move for the platform.
