<head> starts in just under 48 hours time. I am taking part in a ’state of Flash’ roundtable discussion with Seb Lee-Delisle and Carlos Ulloa live on stage at the London hub (Friday at 17:10 BST). Other speakers at the London hub include: Tim O’Reilly, Richard Moross, Jeremy Keith, Paul Boag, Simon Willison, Chris Heilmann, Stephanie Troeth, Ann McMeekin, Gavin Starks, Gavin Bell, and Simon Wardley.
If you want to attend any of the local hubs (expecially the London hub) you’ll need to reserve a place as there is limited seating. If you have your ticket, head on over to the Local Conference Hubs page, sign-in, select your hub and click the link to reserve your place. Don’t forget to print your ticket and bring it along with you on the day.
I’m also giving a virtual session in Room 3 on Sunday at 19:00 BST entitled ‘Beg, Borrow or Steal: The Art of Flashing Without Flashing’. Here’s the session description:
HTML5 is awesome. Well, it will be awesome when it’s finally ready. Probably. The bad news is that by the time the W3C have finished monkeying with HTML5, I’ll probably have given up on the web as a whole and taken up meat goat farming. The good news (for you, me and the goats) is that there’s no need to wait for a lot of the functionality that HTML5 promises; we can start using them right now. In this session I’m going to show you how you can steal these features from the Flash Player and use them in your standards-based sites or applications, without even a sniff of Flash on the page.
See you at <head>.

Aral has finally taken the wraps off of his super-secret Singularity project:
Singularity is the first large-scale online web conference in the world. Singularity is over 100 of the world’s top web visionaries, developers, designers, thought leaders, and celebrities. Singularity is three days of talks over multiple tracks. In 2008, Singularity will define Web ‘08.
I’m proud to say that I’ve signed up as a speaker for the event. My session, however, is an absolute secret that I will not divulge to anyone before the time is right. Okay, okay… I’m not 100% sure what my session is going to be just yet, but I’ve got until mid-october to sort something out. My experience working at Yahoo! – trying to bring together the best from the Flash/Flex work with the best from the HTML/CSS/JS standards world – is sure to give me a unique view on something, right?
If there’s something specific you want to hear about, let me know via the comments.
