I am going to have a busy summer. I have a number of speaking engagements over the next few months:
Omaha Dynamic Languages User Group
Date: June 6th
Presentation: Ruby on Rails
I will be giving an overview of Ruby on Rails to the Dynamic Language group. I hope to have time to learn RJS so that I can really focus on that technology.
Omaha Java User Group
Date: June 20th
Presentation: Java Performance Tools, Tips, and Tricks
Unless somebody else steps up and volunteers to present, I will be giving a preview of my No Fluff presentation in July.
Central Iowa Software Symposium
Presentation: Java Performance Tools, Tips, and Tricks
This is an extended presentation of what comes below. In addition to performance monitoring, I will be talking more about the hows and whys of performance.
OSCON 2006
Presentation: Open Source Performance Monitoring Tools and Tricks for Java
This is a survey of Open Source Performance Monitoring Tools for Java. It is only a 45 minute session, so it will go very fast. If you cannot make it to Portland (hey, I understand 
), then take a look at my presentation for Bass & Associates… they will be similar.
Central Iowa JUG
Presentation: Integrating AJAX into the Enterprise using REST and ActiveMQ JMS
Right now they have me down for Performance Monitoring, but currently the plan is to talk about AJAX working in conjunction with ActiveMQ JMS and the REST protocol. I have a lot to do on this one still!
Wow. Every time I look at that list, I start freaking out about the amount of work ahead of me. But, I am really looking forward to the challenge. This should be a very exciting summer!

[...] Last night was the last stop in “Secoske’s Summer Speaking Tour 2006″ (I just made that up) and I am very relieved. As I have posted before, I had a lot of talks (at least for me) in the last two months-and-some-days, and it was difficult to prepare for all of them, but I have had a blast! This has been an amazing year for me. Speaking at NoFluff and OSCON, CIJUG, Omaha’s Dynamic Languages User’s Group, and of course home sweet home OJUG, I have gotten the chance to meet and talk with so many amazing people, doing amazing things. I have learned a lot about the technologies I’ve talked about (Ruby/Rails, Java Performance tools, AJAX) and a lot about me. [...]
