[Sigia-l] Seeking conference information

[Amy Archambault]

Hello everyone!
 
I'd like to hear some recommendations on conferences, seminars, etc. to attend. I have some travel $$ burning a hole in my pocket and I'd really like to go to an IA/User Experience conference this year.  I'm relatively new to the field of IA and I'd like to find a conference that is considered "the" event for all IA/UE/HCI people.  I realize there may be many, but thought it couldn't hurt to ask the experts.
 
All thoughts/opinions on the topic are greatly appreciated!
 
Thanks,
 
Amy Archambault
