      <title>PPW 2007 is here!</title>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://community.moertel.com/~thor/ppw2007/design/ppw-color.png" style="float:left; margin-right: 2em" alt="PPW logo"/&gt;
Today is day 1 of the &lt;a href="http://pghpw.org/"&gt;Pittsburgh Perl Workshop&lt;/a&gt; 2007. Judging by the attendance at last night&amp;#8217;s pre-conference party (hosted by the great folks at Google Pittsburgh), this year&amp;#8217;s &lt;span class="caps"&gt;PPW&lt;/span&gt; is going to be a blast.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Right now, I&amp;#8217;m off to help set up the conference facility with the rest of the &lt;span class="caps"&gt;PPW&lt;/span&gt; organizing team. After we&amp;#8217;re done, and after the initial check-in rush, I hope to kick back and soak up some of the talks.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Ha! If last year is any indication, I&amp;#8217;ll be too busy running around doing conference-organizer stuff to enjoy the talks. But, this year, we are recording the talks. So at least I&amp;#8217;ll get to listen to them later.&lt;/p&gt;


	&lt;p&gt;Gotta run.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
