Andre Charland of Nitobi just reminded me that the Adobe On AIR Bus Tour is making a stop in Vancouver tonight. Be sure to check out their site as you can track their route through a map, tweets, numerous blogs and a live video feed.
I'm just on the bus on my way to Vancouver for a really cool event tonight. We'll talking about developing apps using Ajax and Flex in AIR. Bottom line is there will be some cool demos and all the beer and food is on Adobe:)
