Join us next summer for four days of inspired thinking that goes beyond the obvious\, delivering vital insight into the hidden forces shaping our future. About the program: When we look around us\, there are things we can observe: Buildings. People. Nature. And then there are things that run unseen through our lives. These hidden forces -- social conventions\, biological links\, cultural frameworks\, coded meanings\, complex processes\, creative impulses\, scientific speculations\, software\, networks -- are the connective tissue that binds societies together and the engines that propel organizations forward. When illuminated\, they offer vital insights into our relationships with one another and our world. The TEDGlobal program is designed to explore and make visible the substance of things not seen."

Flash on the Beach conference is the place to go for design\, technical and inspiration if you are a web developer. It has grown quickly and gained fantastic status as the 'must go to' conference around. With FOTB06\, FOTB07 & FOTB08 being such massive successes\, this year we have a hard act to follow\, but FOTB09 will be even better! Nearly 50 of the world's most talented designers\, developers\, creatives\, film makers and artists presenting on 3 tracks over 3 full days. Flash on the Beach brings together the most creative\, technical\, inspirational\, awe-inspiring\, educational and entertaining industry leading speakers in the rich media industry. Not just for Flash.. Don't think of FOTB as just another Flash conference. The Flash bit of the title is more of a mentality or vibe than just a software product. What we mean by that is that Flash is one of the coolest web tools around. It breeds a mentality and vibe that sets it apart. The Flash community is very supportive of each other. They share\, talk\, blog\, experiment and share some more! They do not limit themselves solely to the product called Flash either. They design\, create and deliver some of the best experiences on the web using a wide variety of tools and skills. Don't think that Flash on the Beach is only about Flash\, appearing at FOTB in the past we have had the usual suspects - Flash\, Flex\, AIR\, and then some. Photoshop\, After Effects\, Processing and many more. If you are a tech-head or a creative\, and you need a fix of creative inspiration\, or to know the latest how-to's\, Flash on the Beach is where you'll get it.

So far\, I personally thought the event in 2007 was the best\, with the 2008 event being more commercial than the grass-roots feeling of previous years....more marketing people than before. The magic word that Picnic needs to think about in 2009 is focus\, perhaps cutting the number of parallel events which distract from the main conference. Videos of the 2007/8 festivals are now up on the Picnic website if you want to get a feel for it. The only clouds on the horizon are their constant drive for growth and the fact that very little is free anymore. Money is going to be extremely tight this year\, so I personally hope it doesn't try to become a film festival\, but keeps its focus on emerging media. I also hope they put more effort into improving the navigation of the Picnic website. It becomes very chaotic around the time of the conferences. Agree?
