My dear MediaWiki and Semantic Wiki folks,
Just a reminder that SMWCon Spring 2012 will start on Wednesday 4/24 at
9am (Pacific Daylight Time, GMT-7) , kicking off with tutorials and a
first-ever editithon, then 2 full-day conference, all with gourmet meals,
and fun social activities, including the use of gym, saline pool and
executive lockers in the conference venue. If you're attending in person,
good for you; otherwise, you can still participate remotely.
We will try to do live broadcasting with WebEx tomorrow - the first time
for SMWCon, we sure hope the bandwidth is good enough. Please feel free to
join our webinar sessions as listed in each presentation. In case you
missed the live action, we'll also record video anyway for later watch -
and will upload within a day or two.
Of course, you can always participate via the IRC channel (general SMW IRC
channel #semantic-mediawiki <irc://irc.freenode.net/semantic-mediawiki> or
this webchat
interface<http://webchat.freenode.net/?channels=semantic-mediawiki&u…
.), and Twitter (#smwcon <https://twitter.com/#!/search/smwcon>).
Come to join us at TriCity Wellness Center, to share knowledge and play
with data!
Cheers,
Jesse Wang

wiki and create a profile to be part of "the Data" to play with :)
This SMWCon Spring 2012 offers you great opportunity to learn,
communicate, and socialize, at really low cost, thanks to our sponsor
ai-one; if you're a student, you can even save money attending the
conference than eating out;)
Please check out the Keynote Talks, and Breakfast for Business event which
is free to all (no registration required), and all social events, or even
propose your own, such as "Talk about social web around (or in) the pool;).
For people who found themselves already have an account created (but not
getting an email, please email me for your password, sorry we had an email
server issue earlier).
Thanks a lot and we're looking forward to seeing you at SMWCon Spring 2012
on April 25-27, in Carlsbad, California!
