Adobe is launching the FlashBuilder 4 and Flash Catalyst Tour in full force! Next week we will be having a joint user group meeting with the Pittsburgh Cold Fusion Users Group for an official pre-release event! Join us at IMPAQT as Adobe sends Adam Lehman, Adobe’s product manager for ColdFusion to talk to us about the advancements in CF, FB and FC! There will be swag, giveaways and food! Make sure you head on over and RSVP for an extra chance at an iPod as well! This is on our normal meeting night so make sure you show up at IMPAQT instead of at New Perspective!

The 2009 Web design and development Spring

General admission tickets are only $65, students get in for $20. This is an outstanding price for the world-class caliber of Web professionals that will be presenting. For instance, renowned CSS guru and author of “CSS: The Definitive Guide” (O’Reilly), Eric Meyer will be giving us all a taste of how JavaScript Will Save Us All. Adobe Platform Evangelist Kevin Hoyt will be teaching us the Top 10 problems with RIA that you never knew existed. Stephanie Sullivan and Greg Rewis, authors of the recently published “Mastering CSS with Dreamweaver CS4″ (New Riders) will be delivering our keynote, as well as presenting on topics from CSS to AJAX.
