[|] Less is More

STIC Conference 2012

The STIC conference (formerly known as Smalltalk Solutions) is being held from March 18-21 in Biloxi Mississippi.

I am often asked how this conference compares to the ESUG conference;  where ESUG has a more academic orientation, the STIC conference is geared more towards commercial use and business success and solutions.

I welcome you to come to the conference! See here to learn more, or to sign up to attend.

I will be involved with two presentations this year;  a Cincom Smalltalk roadmap/news presentation, and a presentation on using Cincom Smalltalk for supporting a business.  I welcome you to attend them!

Here are just a few of the presentations I think you will find interesting this year.  Come join us!   - Arden Thomas
