<p>Hello,<br />
<p>Summer is well underway, and we're keeping busy by attending as many events as we can. Currently we're in Orlando at TechEd. The Velocity Web Operations and Performance Conference is coming up June 25-27, followed by OSCON July 16-20. Also, make sure not to miss our No-Brainer Father's Day Gift Guide (for Dads with Big Brains). You'll likely find that special something for that hard-to-shop-for parental unit.</p>
<p>—Marsee Henon & Jon Johns</p>
<p>P.S. The first five to respond to us by email get 3-month subscriptions and unlimited access to Safari Books Online.</p>
