Ask HN: Which US tech events in Jan-April are worth going to?

2 pointsby notauser17 lat temu5 comments

I have been asked to talk at a conference in the US in February next year, so I'm going to go out for three months and plan to work from anywhere with WiFi.

Is there anything that you can recommend as being particularly worthwhile? (Or, alternatively, are there any HNers on route who I should visit.)

The rough itinerary is:

Jan - NY, Boston.

Feb - Atlanta, Boulder.

March - California.

April - back to Boston/NY.

I'm still bootstrapping so low cost suggestions are more welcome :-)

Not terribly far away from your April location, jsconf 2010 will be in Washington DC around mid-April.

Planning on going to this one, thank you :-)

Figured, but would have been nice if you listed the one you were thinking of, at the least so we know which technologies. I can recommend some chemistry software conferences, after all, which occur during that time. ;)

I'm really impressed with how well Raphael JS works for animations - getting it working on IE6 only required one tweak.
