I'm extremely excited to attend FITC Toronto this month (April 26-28th). Not only is it my first time to Toronto, which I hear is an amazing city (I hear it's the best in all of Canada), not only am I speaking about my Gaia Framework, but the lineup this year is incredible. If you haven't bought your ticket yet or are still on the fence about going, you should definitely get on it before they're all gone. I love going to Flash events and here's a few reasons why this one is particularly awesome:

First up is Lee Brimelow. Lee is one of my favorite evangelists and is representing again, this time with an introduction to ByteArrays and a Flash CS4 Workshop. Plus, he'll be doing another of his famous Adobe Master Collection dead drops, which is guaranteed to have people running around Toronto at all hours hunting for it (myself included)!

R Blank always brings his trademarked energy and excitement and this year is no exception. He's giving a presentation called "Get off your ass and start using AS3 already!", and any presentation with expletives and exclamation points in its title must be good.

I'm definitely checking out the MTV Jackass on AIR presentation. I've about this AIR app and it sounded insanely bad ass. I'm looking forward to finding out more about how they built this.

It almost goes without saying that I'm looking forward to the legendary parties, getting to meet and hang out with the super stars in the industry, see old friends, and make new ones. It's a fantastic opportunity to network and have fun. I can't wait.

You can see all the presentations here: http://www.fitc.ca/event_detail.cfm?festival_id=79

Looking forward to seeing you there! FYI, I'm giving my presentation on Gaia, Sunday April 26th from 1:40-2:40 (hint hint).

Cheers,
Steven Sacks
