Re: Conferences and CE

Hi Kayla,

Actually, there are a fair number of UX folks in Vegas. Zappos has a great team, and there's interesting stuff happening in the local government, the university, and commercial outfits (both casino-related and non-casino related).

The UPA conference will be in Henderson this year: http://www.usabilityprofessionals.org/conference/2012/

While not completely UX, the Future of Web Design/Apps/Mobile conference will be in Las Vegas proper this spring: http://futureinsightslive.com/

I won't be at either event, but I will be at our UX Immersion conference (which we just opened registration for) in Portland, April 23-25: http://ux-immersion.com

Hope that helps,

Jared
