We’ve got a last minute line up change, sadly Ted won’t be able to make it.

BUT

we’ve got an incredible replacement! Greg Burch, from the Adobe Mobile team. You know the guys working on cool things like the Flex Mobile framework, Flash and iPhone stuff.

Yeah the mobile aspect of Adobe RIA on the cruise just went through the roof!! Don’t worry, we won’t be neglecting the rest of the RIA space. How could we with the likes and Ryan Stewart! Doug McCune, Sam Rivello, and Faisal Abid

Oh and in case you haven’t checked the tentative schedule, Faisal’s gonna be talking mobile too :)

This cruise will be something you’re gonna regret missing. If the conversations in hallways at conferences like 360|Flex, CFUnited, MAX, etc are something you enjoy and geek out on, well this will be almost two weeks of 100% hallways, conversation, geeking out, with a tropical paradise as the backdrop!

Register now, time’s running out, and boat is filling up.

We've been working with our awesome speakers to come up with some ideas for the cruise. We've also got a uservoice set up so people can submit discussion topics. That's still open by the way.

In the meantime, here's what we've got right now. If it looks like a ton of awesome discussions, sitting around a table having a drink/meal, you'd be right, that's exactly what it is.

RIAdventure isn't a conference in the 'sit around in sessions' sense (we've got some sessions, don't get me wrong) it's more of what is typically the best part of conferences, the conversations in the hallways.

Rather than have rehashed presos and talks about specific products, what if we took this conference to a higher level? What if we talked about the future of RIA? Who would we want leading that discussion?

Two people immediately jumped into my mind when I asked myself that question. I quickly hit them up on instant messenger to get their initial thoughts. They caught onto the concept gave a tentative yes. Now, after checking their schedules, they've given the thumbs up to participating.

We're happy to announce that Doug McCune and Ryan Stewart will be joining us as the first two speakers at the RIAdventure 360 conference.
