Ask HN: What web development conferences should I try to attend this year?

Two come to mind:

Or

Anything that LukeW presents ... http://www.lukew.com/presos/

Designer/Developer/Mobile Workflow conference May 16-18, 2012 - Plaza Marriott, Kansas City http://d2wc.com/

AdobeMAX Oct 20-24, 2012 - Los Angeles http://max.adobe.com/

Your head will be swimming after either of these. I had a blast at both last year. :)

Where are you located / are you limited to a certain area?

Not sure what the details are, but there's a PHP conference coming up in Boston in August.
