We are excited to announce Surge 2011, the Scalability and Performance
Conference, to be held in Baltimore on Sept 28-30, 2011. The event focuses
on case studies that demonstrate successes (and failures) in Web
applications and Internet architectures. This year, we're adding Hack Day on
September 28th.

The inaugural, 2010 conference (<a href="http://omniti.com/surge/2010" title="http://omniti.com/surge/2010">http://omniti.com/surge/2010</a>) was a smashing
success and we are currently accepting submissions for papers through April
3rd. You can find more information about topics online:

2010 attendees compared Surge to the early days of Velocity, and our
speakers received 3.5-4 out of 4 stars for quality of presentation and
quality of content! Nearly 90% of first-year attendees are planning to come
again in 2011.
