Miami, 28th Feb - 1st Mar 2008

There’s tons of opportunity to relax and enjoy yourself at FOWA - and to get to know your fellow attendees. We didn’t choose Miami as our next US destination for nothing!

As well as the amazing, modern conference venue, there’ll be parties and socials galore. More details will be posted on this page as soon as they’re confirmed - but here’s just a taster of what’s coming up...

COME HANG OUT WITH US

We like impromptu meet ups and drinks, who doesn’t?

If you’re travelling to Miami for the event, why not come stay at the same hotel as us?

The Strand is located on Ocean Drive, South Miami Beach which is practically on the beach and within stumbling distance of the party venue.

You can find more details here - come and stay in our official hotel.

BREAKFAST CLUB But no Molly Ringwald

Whether it’s to set you up for a day of hardcore conference action, or getting you back on the straight and narrow after partying all night, breakfast is going to be a social affair at FOWA.

We'll be having breakfast at Jerry's Famous Deli at 1450 Collins Avenue, Miami Beach - why not come and join us from 10am?

THE OFFICIAL FOWA PARTY, sponsored by ‘SCRAPBLOG’ Yes, literally on the beach

As the sun sets on the conference day, we’ll be wrapping it up with a big beach bash at Nikki Beach, South Beach’s most exclusive and exciting venue, right on the sand. The official FOWA party is being hosted by our friends at Scrapblog, the Miami-based online scrapbooking site. Bring your flip flops!

BAR CAMP MIAMI an unconference next to the conference!

We're honoured to help support the next Bar Camp Miami, which takes place in the same venue as FOWA (Carnival Centre) on February 29. Limited to just 100 participants, BarCamp is free - all you have to do is register your interest at http://barcamp.org/BarCampMiami

If you're already attending FOWA, but you're not coming to the workshops, what better way to spend your day than at BarCamp? And if you sign up for BarCamp, you'll get a massive 50% off the cost of the FOWA conference. You'll receive details once you sign up.

CROWDVINE Social networking

As an FOWA attendee, you’ll have access to the FOWA Crowdvine network - a social web app where you can create a personal profile of your interests, then Crowdvine will match you up to similar-minded people (and also let you know your polar opposite - just in case you meet!). It’s a great way to break the ice and get to know people before the event. Sign up at http://fowa-miami.crowdvine.com
