What is Spring of Web 2009?

Spring of Web 2009 is a half-day conference created to bring the UF Web community together and back to Web basics. Refreshments will be provided, and there will be several prize drawings.

Spring of Web's full intent is to bring speakers, both internal and external, to discuss the daily issues seen across the Web community. Topics will include the advanced HTML & CSS, site analytics, search engine optimization and usability.

Speakers will come from a variety of Web backgrounds including consultants, developers, instructors and communications specialists. Among the speakers are Web Admin's own Joe Spooner, College of Education webmaster Prentiss Ladkani, researcher and instructor at the College of Journalism Dave Stanton, and Web professional and Gator alumnus Carl Smith from nGen Works.

When & Where?

The event will be on April 10th, from 8:30 a.m. to noon at the Emerson Alumni Hall Teaching Classroom.

We will also provide live video streaming and video archives for those who are unable to attend in person.

Who is attending?

This event is for University of Florida Web professionals of all types. If you are someone who writes content, moves pixels, develops Web applications or falls anywhere in between, you're welcome to attend — just make sure you RSVP as spaces are limited. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate students for this event.
