The next month is going to be a busy one for many of us here at Tucows. In addition to the usual work stuff, some of us will be making appearances at the following conferences:

### CASCON 2006 (Toronto)

I got a last-minute invitation to IBM's [CASCON 2006](https://www-927.ibm.com/ibm/cas/cascon/) conference, which runs from October 16th through 19th, where I'll participate in the [**Social Computing: Best Practices**](https://www-927.ibm.com/ibm/cas/cascon/workshopsignup/displayWorkshop?PublicView=true&Slot=WEDPM&Num=21) panel. I'm thinking of catching the “Introduction to AJAX Technologies” workshop on Monday and the “Rails/DB2” workshop on Tuesday afternoon. Note that admission to this conference is free, including the food!

### The Ajax Experience (Boston)

Here's a good one — [Brent Ashley](http://www.ashleyit.com/), who will lead the [**Ajax Transport Layer Alternatives**](http://theajaxexperience.com/show_session_view.jsp?sessionId=1492&showId=59) session, gave me a complimentary pass to [The Ajax Experience](http://theajaxexperience.com/show_view.jsp?showId=59), which runs from October 23rd through 25th. This looks to be a very meaty conference for techies and I plan to take copious notes and share them with the developers here at Tucows as well as you, the readers.

### ISPCON Fall 2006 (Santa Clara)

[ISPCON Fall 2006](http://www.ispcon.com/) is the premier conference for internet service providers, wireless providers, VOIP providers and internet businesses. Tucows people will be all over this one — on the exhibit floor, doing the opening keynote and leading a couple of sessions!
