I will be at the Pervasive 2007 conference which is in Toronto this year. Finally, I've always wanted to go to Pervasive but never had the chance to go to because it was too far away and too expensive. I will be presenting my doctoral research as part of the Doctoral Colloquium which is "The Search for Sense of Virtual Community in Social Hypertext". As well, I will also be a student volunteer at Pervasive, so if you're at Pervasive, you might see me running around the conference, or helping out at different sessions, or even socializing. Pervasive starts May 13 and runs to May 16. I'm really eager to help out and to be at this conference.
The keynote speaker is Adam Greenfield, who is the author of the Everyware: The Dawning Age of Ubiquitous Computing book. Adam will be talking about "Everyware: Some Social and Ethical Implications of Ubiquitous Computing". That's great, because I met Adam when he gave a talk in San Francisco last summer when I was working at PARC, you can see my blog post about him here.
Pervasive should be a great conference, and I'm looking forward to it!

Hey, Alvin, I'm not sure I've ever adequately thanked you for setting up the PARC talk. Your first drink in Toronto is on me!
I'll be roaming around at the conference, so if you catch me, then we can go have a drink! See you at Pervasive!
