As most of you have already heard, there is going to be a bus going from Grand Rapids Michigan all the way down to the devLink Technical Conference in Tennessee and making plenty of stops along the way. It will be a great opportunity to do an extremely long road trip with some of your geek friends. There will be plenty of experts on the bus, who you can corner and ask all of those questions that have been bothering you.
Get to know your local user group leaders and see what they are up to when they aren't making the development community work. Ask Ted Neward why Perl is the best language ever and Scala is a waste of time. Let Chris Woodruff know if you think Deep Fried Bytes, bites or if it rocks! How would Jeff McWherter optimize your web app? I've heard he doesn't like ORMs? What are those Microsoft Evangelists up to and how can they help make your life easier? Can they give you free stuff? What kind of methodology wars can we start with that kind of time? How many annoying questions will it take to make one of our favorite experts snap?! Want to find out? I'll be posting more information on how you can get on the bus and who you will be spending the weekend with.
We are currently working to get sponsors so that the trip will be extremely inexpensive for everyone. The exact cost, and registration will be ready soon. Get the word out to all of your geek friends.
What route will the bus take? Where can you get on? While we are not sure of the exact locations of pickups, we do plan on stopping at all of the major cities along this route. Stay tuned for more information - coming very soon!

is Ted Neward going to be on the bus? In which city will he join? The opportunity to argue with Ted for hours on end with no escape is very appealing.
This is very cool Amanda! What?! not stopping in Dallas? dang.
You need to make the DevLink bus come through Indianpolis. We're tired of being ignored by all you cool OH tweeps.
Dean, I'm sorry. We are trying to save money and such. We're not trying to exclude you! Our Indy friends are always welcome! Please sign up and drive to a closer city! It will still save you money, and be a great time!
SillyEvar, Ted will be on the bus. He'll most likely be getting on in Columbus. I cant wait to hear the arguing!
Keep me posted as to how much and when. I'll drive to Columbus from Cleveland :)
Will the bus be leaving for the return trip (it will be making a return trip, right?) on Saturday evening, or will it leave the following morning?
