Explicitly and without apology a marketing vehicle MaryMaryQuiteContrary

I did it.

I submitted a session for JavaOne.

That's right. I'm your run-of-the-mill marketing girl. And I've submitted a session for JavaOne which I think has a reasonable chance of being accepted.

I can't tell you what it is yet.

I don't want anybody stealing my idea.

Not that I'm really worried about you techno celeb regular blog readers, whom I love and adore.

I know you have higher standards.

It's those snipers. Those readers peek in on me just to see what I'm doing. Those are the guys who might steal my idea.

So I'm not telling.

Until the call for papers closes on January 31.

p.s. just think... i could techno celeb watch in the speakers lounge and not even having to dodge the guards to get in. how sweet would that be?

I've been trying to attend JavaOne since the year of the Java rings... when was that, 1998ish? Registration prices, travel expense (live in Seattle), and a lack of any training budget at my work always manages to get in the way...

On the other hand, every couple of years or so, Sun TechDays seems to blow through Seattle. While it's no JavaOne, it inspires and gives hope to Java developers living in the Shadow of the Beast. :)
