d.Construct 2006
"An affordable, one-day conference aimed at those building the latest generation of web-based applications. The event discusses how new technology is transforming the web from a document delivery system into an application platform...
"Last year saw the inaugural event, the first of its kind in the UK. Internationally renowned speakers from organisations including Yahoo!, the BBC and the Electronic Freedom Federation discussed hot-topics such as web application design, AJAX, API’s and the mobile web.
This years event has an equally fantastic line-up of speakers, discussing everything from mash-ups and API’s through to tagging and Ajax accessibility.

* Simon Willison (Flickr, Yahoo!)
* Paul Hammond (Yahoo!)
* Derek Featherstone (Further Ahead)
* Thomas Vander Wal (InfoCloud Solutions Inc.)
* Aral Balkan (Ariaware)
* Jeff Barr (Amazon)
Due to the unprecedented interest in last year’s conference, we will be increasing this year’s capacity to 350 people, allowing even more people to benefit from the event. However we’ll be sticking to the same low price, in order to make the event accessible to all.”
