New Adventures in Web Design - The Highlights

What a fantastic day at the New Adventures conference last week: fun crowd, great diggs and first-class speakers who made our brains teem with ideas.

The Front team plus 600+ web designers joined Simon Collison in the Albert Hall for his first industry conference. One of the world’s great web designers, Simon curated a one-day schedule that would challenge even the most seasoned organiser: 10 talks and two live Q&A panel debates in eight hours.

Build – that difficult second album

This month, for the second year running, Belfast was host to a web design conference with world class speakers that included Liz Danzico, Dan Cederholm and Frank Chimero. With a line up like this, organiser Andy McMillan and Build were once again destined for glory and it produced even better results than I expected.

Front go to the ExpressionEngine and CodeIgniter Conference 2009 in Leiden, Netherlands

In 2009 I’ve been lucky enough to attend design-centred conferences such as Future of Web Design London, and the FOWD Tour in Belfast; now the time has come to satisfy my developer urges for two days at the first Expression Engine and Code Igniter conference in Leiden, Netherlands. I’ll be reporting back throughout the conference, but here’s a summary of what I’m looking forward to.

Why am I Going?

ExpressionEngine is a fantastic Content Management System that we use many of our projects here at FRONT. Having been through the spectrum of off the shelf content management systems (and having been mostly disappointed/frustrated) we’ve found ExpressionEngine to be a robust, functionally rich CMS that makes simple things simple and more difficult things eminently possible. It’s a system that lets us focus on doing what’s unique to each project.

The first ExpressionEngine/CodeIgniter Conference in Leiden, Netherlands is a must-attend event for us. I’ve been asked to travel to EECI2009 to learn from the experts, relay this information to the team so that we can all keep our skills razor sharp and so we can continue to offer great work to our clients.
