We are excited to announce Surge 2011, the Scalability and Performance Conference, to be held in Baltimore on Sept 28-30, 2011. The event focuses on case studies that demonstrate successes (and failures) in Web applications and Internet architectures. This year, we’re adding Hack Day on September 28th. The inaugural, 2010 conference ([http://omniti.com/surge/2010](http://omniti.com/surge/2010)) was a smashing success and we are currently accepting submissions for papers through April 3rd. You can find more information about topics online: [http://omniti.com/surge/2011](http://omniti.com/surge/2011) 2010 attendees compared Surge to the early days of Velocity, and our speakers received 3.5-4 out of 4 stars for quality of presentation and quality of content! Nearly 90% of first-year attendees are planning to come again in 2011.
