Well it’s that time of year again. No – not burning ants with a magnifying glass. It’s travel time. I’m headed to the 2005 Resnet Conference in Atlanta, GA. Between the conference and traveling it’ll be about a whole week.
The conference is at Georgia Tech. I’ve never been the Georgia, so that should be fun. I’ve traveled to New York (NYC), Texas (Austin), and now Georgia. Add a recently planned trip to Hawaii next Fall, and I’m turning into a real world traveler.
Anyway so this conference covers all things ResNet (Residential Networking). They have people like me presenting sessions about things like viruses, file-sharing, out-sourcing residential networking, training, support, student workers, internal politics, security, standards, new services, and lots of other topics.
It’s a great opportunity to really take Residential Computing (our ResNet) up a notch. Not only do we need to stay current, but it’s really important that we have connections to get (and give) help from other similar institutions. The residential computing area changes so much from year to year, I feel it’s invaluable to get this kind of training regularly. I’m very appreciative that I have the opportunity to go this year.
