Going to PyCon

PyCon 2011 will be held in Atlanta, GA, USA during March 9th~17th.

It's quite pricey though, at least if you pay yourself. Conference is 300 for early brids and tutorials are 100 each for same. Moreover the special hotel rate is 160 a night, what a ripoff!

It's probably a nice hotel and all, but if you read Trip Advisor, some manage to stay in same hotel for 53 plus tax a night! I didn't book a hotel yet, but there's a bunch of cheaper options in the vicinity.

PyCon expects over a thousand attendees, so perhaps it is worthwhile to compare to DrupalCon costs.

Anyhow, I'm going to make a Google calendar for the event because the PyCon's website leaves far to be desired, and I will surely post my impressions and more when I'm there!
