Defrag
is the first conference focused solely on the tools
and technologies that are leveraging the "social"
aspect of software to accelerate the "aha"
moment. Defrag is not a version number. Rather it’s
a gathering place for the growing community of implementers,
users, builders and thinkers that are working on the
next wave of software innovation.
|
Defrag
is being organized by Phil Becker, Brad Feld and Eric
Norlin: |
