You would think the GIS/LBS industry is big enough to justify someplace bigger than Burlingame - perhaps San Diego, eh? Oh, how about Medford, OR, you know half way between.....well, anyway. </p> <p>We'll have a booth setup in the Expo hall where we're giving out some free schwag for stopping by (for those of you on the east coast, it's not what you think). </p> <p>We have a couple sessions where Microsoft people will talk Virtual Earth. Here's the line up:</p> <ul> <li>Vincent Tao, <a href="http://en.oreilly.com/where2008/public/schedule/detail/3503" target="_blank">Plenary Presentation - "Where is Where?"</a>, May 13, 3:05pm, Salon A-F</li> <li>Chris Pendleton, <a href="http://en.oreilly.com/where2008/public/schedule/grid?date=2008-05-13" target="_blank">Birds of a Feather presentation</a>, May 13, 9pm, Bayside I&nbsp; - I'm doing a deep dive on <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/virtualearth" target="_blank">Virtual Earth</a>, The Platform. I'll show some applications, some code, and some integration across other Microsoft products. </li> <li>Steve Lombardi, <a href="http://en.oreilly.com/where2008/public/schedule/grid?date=2008-05-13" target="_blank">Birds of a Feather presentation</a>, May 13, 10pm, Bayside I - Lombardi's going after collections and some <a href="http://maps.live.com" target="_blank">Live Search Maps</a> features.</li></ul> <p>So, stay late. Perhaps Lombardi and I will make it worth your while. <p>CP</p><img src="http://blogs.msdn.com/aggbug.aspx?PostID=8461767" width="1" height="1">
