Looks like the folks at TEDx are once again getting TEDxPennQuarter setup - this time at the Woolly Mammoth Theatre on Oct. 18th, 2011. Tickets are $99.00 for general admission. To see last years event, you can go here: http://tedxpennquarter.com/videos/

Depending on our schedule, we'll see if we can go this year to hear some great talks and also be involved in deep discussions regarding great ideas. For example, Sam Calagione, the founder and president of Dogfish Head Inc., will be speaking at this event to talk about reinventing beer - from being the smallest brewery in America to being a known brand in 30 states. If you've ever tried any of his beers, you'd understand his unconventional approach.

Looking forward to lots of great talks this year at TEDxPennQuarter!

d3 is touted as lightweight Javascript Library that focuses on documents driven by data. We're excited to start using this library and add this toolset to our current work. Just looking at the examples gives us inspiration on what can be done. Tutorials, documentation, and downloads for the latest version 2.3 are here: http://mbostock.github.com/d3/ .

A great conference coming to NYC on how to manage your data, discuss strategies, and talk about the latest tools and technologies to harness your companies data. It was a huge success on the West Coast earlier this year and this time around, it should not be missed for the folks here on the East.
