Tip of the Day — MySQL Users Conference
Every spring MySQL puts on the MySQL Users Conference in the San Francisco area of the United States. Almost 2,000 users gather for four days to listen to some of the experts of the MySQL world. Consider it a Users Group meeeting on steroids. There are other conferences in other countries, but this is the one that I am the most familiar and according to MySQL is the largest gathering of MySQL users and dbas.
This year the conference is April 14th through 17th and the home page is http://en.oreilly.com/mysql2008/public/content/home
I know there are many others who have talked about the MySQL conference — even recently - and more recently. It is because we realize how important it is.
If you are MySQL professional you owe it to yourself and your company to go “join the pod” at the Users Conference. You will learn more in four days than you thought possible. Hope to see you there!!

The contacts you meet will be invaluable as well.
Another tip is to look at user group and conference presentations, which can be found online at Google Video, YouTube, and of course http://www.technocation.org/video
