With the Future of Web Design (FOWD) conference only a few weeks away — November 16th and 17th to be exact — I thought it would be interesting to discover what TDC readers are going to be attending. It would be great to meet and interact with you all in person, so please leave a comment below with your Twitter account and shoot me some Tweets while you’re there! I will also be also posting updates on Twitter from FOWD on the 17th, so feel free to follow the hashtag on Twitter #TDCFOWD.
What is FOWD?
The Future of Wed Design is 2 day conference that takes place in London, New York City and Miami. The event, run by the folks at Carsonified, is aimed at creatives, designers and anyone else who cares about web design.
Featuring some of the best web designers in the field, speakers include a few well known names such as Dan Cederholm (Simplebits), Elliot Jay Stocks, Jason Santa Maria, Dan Rubin, Bill Buxton (Microsoft) and more.
Topics covered will include ‘Real World Accessibility for Web Designers’, ‘WordPress Theme Development for Web Designers’, ‘How to Design Effective Web Content’, and ‘Best Practices in Web Typography’ — to name a few.
Hope to see some of you there! Tickets are still available if you would like to attend, but if you are unable to make it I will be posting a recap here on TDC, so make sure you subscribe.
Remember you can also follow me on Twitter and the hashtag #TDCFOWD on November 17th for live updates.
I live in the NYC area so I’m down for some meetups. Unfortunately, I can’t afford to attend as a paying attendee. Lemme know if you’re in town.
I am going. This is my first time for FOWD, so I’m super excited. See you there :)
I am going. I will probably the only french there, so it will be easy to recognize me with my beret and my baguette! And yes we have the internet in France :)
I would love to go. And I’m not that far from NY. But man, those tickets are kinda expensive. I will definitely mark the calendar.
This will be my first time at FOWD and my 3rd time visiting NYC. Can’t wait! My Twitter username is avalonmel.
Dillon and I from Morning Copy will be there. Look forward to meeting you guys!
Brian I’ll be there and would look forward to meeting up with you. Shoot me a message on Twitter if you want to make plans to meet up.

I wish I could go. I have never been to FOWD or NYC so it would be a pretty amazing trip. I can’t really afford it right now since I’m unemployed.
