Hello,

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.

—Marsee Henon & Jon Johns

P.S. The first five to respond to us by email get 3-month subscriptions and
unlimited access to Safari Books Online.
