Glen Gordon is spreading the word about an upcoming 1 day developer conference in Atlanta. The date is 16 Dec 2008. That's a Tuesday.

It is unfortunately, $99 per attendee but there is some pretty cool content.

The event is all day (8:30 to 4:45PM; registration is 7:30AM to 8:30AM) at the Westin Peachtree Plaza.

There is one track dedicated to cloud services including one presentation titled "Developing and Deploying Your First Cloud Services".

There is one track on UI development that includes presentations on Silverlight, WPF, and the last one of the day is on ASP.NET 4.0 which is a future release.

The last track which I'm usually very interested in is "Tools, Languages and Framework" but it looks like it is all future stuff. There's something the "future of C#, F#, and VB". There is something on VSTS 2010. I'm not using VSTS and 2010 is still a ways off. The Paralell Programing for Managed Code Developers sounds really cool but it's only for the next version of Visual Studio which comes out in 2010.

If you are interested in Cloud Computing or WPF or Silverlight then this looks pretty cool. Or if you are really interested in all the stuff that's going to be in VS 2010 then you should go to this as there is lots of material for that.

So tell your boss you need $99 and off on Tuesday for training.

There are also giveaways but I haven't been able to pry out of Glen what they are yet. Will let you know if it is something really cool.

Here are some links if you watch to check it out:
