The event is Singularity08 and I am Singularity.
Left wondering? I am talking about the first large-scale online web conference in the world, Singularity 2008.
What Is It?
It’s a seminal web event intended to form a time capsule or snapshot of Web ’08 . The conference will have experts in WebDesign & Blogging, Artists, 3D & Flash Developers, Gods of JavaScript & MarkUps, Hackers, Entrepreneurs; conducting sessions on various topics.
When Is It?
It is a 3-day event that is to be held during October 24-26th, 2008
Where Is It?
On the Web. It’s all happening right here. It works on Streaming Technology.
Who Is Organizing It?
It is organized by Aral Balkan (speaker, consultant, developer, know abt him ) Kudos to him!!
How Can You Be Singularity ?
It will be a paid event (Aral has promised to keep it as affordable as possible). But, “after an exclusive period for attendees, we will be releasing the sessions under a CreativeCommons license so that everyone can access the material” -Aral said. (That’s Great).
The idea is for it to become a time capsule of sorts: What this group of passionate thought leaders think, was exciting about Web ‘08. I feel it will be a very valuable contribution to the commons.
-Aral said in a private mail to me. ( I am very proud to have talked to him).

Yeah. Conferences like this is a great need. And i appreciate Mr. Aral for his decision to make the event available to general public under a creative commons license. Thank You.
And, I liked the design, too.
