Thank you for everyone’s participation in the first annual Atlanta Firestarter. The conference was a great success thanks to everyone that attended and presented. We hope that most everyone left with a renewed sense of inspiration and excitement. Please check back soon to see a collected list of everyone’s presentations.
Firestarter is going to be a blast. All 175 slots are full. After a week of being open we have sold out the event. Don’t worry if you missed out on this one. There will be plenty more Silverlight meetups in the greater Atlanta area soon. For those of you attending get ready for a jam-packed day full of adventure and excitement. Watch out TED talks because we’re bringing the heat!
