Fall Conferences are Everywhere!
As you've probably noticed, there is no shortage of Magento events in the fall. I have several I'll be attending including MageTitans USA, Meet Magento Poland, Magento Stammtisch Wien, Meet Magento New York, Mage Unconference Netherlands and MagentoLive Australia. (Plus a few more stops TBA.) Will I see you at any of them? Tweet me and let me know! Also, scroll to the bottom of this digest for a list of even more upcoming events and locations.
