Thanks for all the input so far. I am attaching Poll to this thread to get some rough idea on how the dates and location sound (I think it is going to take us a while to start holding an east coast version).

After we get some input on this, we will set up a registration system for doing RSVPs.

Here goes,

I'm interested. Not so much in "building the oven" part - mine should be built and in use by then. But definitely in the "using the oven" part of it.

Oh boy, we will definitely cook!

What airport would you fly into and about how far from airport to Expo.

Thanks

[james]

Monterey has its own airport, but it isn't very big. You should check it out for flights.

San Jose Airport is one hour, 15 minutes.
San Francisco Airport is one hour 45 minutes.
Oakland Airport is one hour 45 minutes.

There is a huge number of hotel rooms, and we will check and see if we can get a group discount at one of the larger hotels.

Thanks for the info.

If you get serious, don` fret about the drive down from San.Fran.--it is great and you could do it in a couple or three hours or over two days and be happy either way. Don`t just drive toward Big Sur, go into it a bit. it must be one of the world`s most famous ocean drives but do NOT do it at night. Really, between San Fran and mid- Big Sur the days fill themselves with delights.

Happy to attend ... can I give you my contact details so you can send my air ticket!!!

The Expo is a Great idea - would love to attend but are likely going to Europe in 2010.

Just been over to South Africa for a few weeks - perhaps that would be a good market for FB, particularly as they are having the Soccer World Cup there in 2010.

James - I apologize if I have missed it, I read through the thread a couple times. Are there "hard" dates for this yet? Just trying to make plans and want to make sure I can fit this great event in

Hey Telehort,

FB Expo has just been finalized for Feb 20-21 at the new FB offices on the Monterey peninsula (finally). There are lots details to come, but the time and space have been set!

The details will be here: http://www.fornobravo.com/expo

It would be great for you to be a big part of FB Expo -- we are working on the tracks for presenters and demos. Can you send me an email (info at fornobravo dot com), and we can work on the details? Sacramento to Monterey isn't too bad; and our winter weather is a little warmer than the central valley. :-)

Let's get hooked up.
