I finally got a chance to sit down and figure out which sessions I want to attend at next week’s Collaborate conference. I’ve been busy working on some proof of concepts and Oracle BIEE training material for the last couple weeks, as well as taking over the lead on a project from one of our developers. With giving 5 presentations and client meetings it really didn’t leave much room for going other presentations. So without further ado, here’s my planned schedule, more of a reference for me than anyone else.

I’m glad to be heading out next week, I work out of my home office most of the time when I’m not at a client site so this is going to give me a chance to meet face to face a lot of the people I talk to on a daily basis. Along with a bunch of friends who I don’t get to see very often.If I’m not presenting and you want to try and catch me around, either give me a call or stop by the IT Convergence booth in the vendor hall. I should have all my presentations and papers up here by the end of next week (as soon as I finish them up).
