Announcing Web Directions East
- In: Blog

In 2007 Web Directions headed offshore to Vancouver for our first Web Directions North. Now, we are really excited to announce Web Directions East, to be held in Tokyo, Japan in November of this year, in conjunction with leading local web design and training companies Actlink and allWeb.
For our first Japanese event, Web Directions East will be a one day, two track conference, and two days of workshops.
One track will feature international speakers, presenting in English, and simultaneously translated into Japanese. The other track will feature Japanese presenters, presenting in Japanese.
We are also really excited with our lineup of wonderful international speakers, featuring
- The godfather of CSS Eric Meyer
- Ajax wizard Jeremy Keith
- Markup legend Dan “simplebits” Cederholm
- Guru of all things web Andy Budd
- W3C SVG and Canvas expert Doug Schepers
- Jeffrey Veen - web legend
Workshops, delivered in English, but with simultaneous translation into Japanese, include
- Eric Meyer on CSS
- Jeremy Keith on Ajax
- Andy Budd on Guerilla User Testing
So, if you are keen on a trip to Japan in November, or know folks there and elsewhere who might be interested, please let them know, or visit the site yourself (right now it’s all in Japanese).
I particularly like the “speaker streams” they’ve put together for each of the speakers - featuring twitter posts, blog posts, flickr photos, video, and other related news puled in from around the web.
We are really excited to be taking Web Directions to Japan. Stay tuned for more news on this and other such events.
