Many of you will have read about the wildly successful Perl Whirl
cruise http://www.geekcruises.com/perl/perl_fromtheboat.html
and http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/8.10/cruise.html

Well, time is running out to sign-up for the unique Geek Cruise
conference experience applied to databases, in...
the Database Discovery cruise:

  http://www.geekcruises.com/

Conference topics incude:
  Tuning Very Large Oracle DataBases, Partitioning in Oracle8i,
  Java in the Database, Effective Database Design with MySQL,
  XML-Enabled Databases, Implementing RAID on Oracle VLDBs,
  Understanding the Object-Oriented features of Oracle8i,

I'll be speaking in a couple of sessions. One is a general intro to the
DBI and the other will focus on the new Oracle::OCI module. Plus I'll
be trapped aboard the ship, along with the other speakers, and so can
be grabbed for a discussion on any topic at any time!

As a special offer, book between now and March 20 and bring along a
companion and they'll give that companion 33% off their cruise fee.
