Today is #FroGSConf and I’m thinking I need to facilitate a session of career transforming insights. I love the open space format and how this particular crowd is so open to whatever is right. When exceptional people like Sanne Visser, Elizabeth Zagroba and Joep Schuurkes co-facilitate, I’m first in line to be included.

Only a few more days until we get to do #FroGSconf again! And you can still join this free online open space. Anyone who wants to talk software and quality is welcome. It takes place this Saturday, starting at 1pm CET.

Go to frogsconf.nl for more information and (not unimportant) to register.

The next #FroGSconf lean coffee is this Wednesday, December 3rd, from 4pm to 5pm CET (Amsterdam). It's online and free, so if you like putting quality in your software, please join and bring a friend if you can!

What is the feedback you should be getting at *this level*?

In a conversation today with the brilliant @ez I picked up a phrase and decided in the moment it would make a great workshop for the #FroGSConf this weekend.

The feedback you are getting tells more about your level than you might think. So let's model that together.

My favorite online software conference is happening soon again on 20th of September: https://frogsconf.nl/
It's a lovely #OpenSpace for people who love building software, with amazing facilitation by @ez

Luckily @OSCo isn't alone :-)
There are other related conferences.
A shoutout to some of them!

Some inspired us (@SoCraTes_Conf, we are looking at you 😋)

Others are even more affordable like the @BSidesMunich and the @elbsides
(as long as you don't need a hotel in Munich or Hamburg 😜) or the #bsides series in general

And some focus on diversity like the @wicca conference

I have to add the #FrogsConf, an online conference in the #OpenSpace format. While I haven't attended before I hope to join the next edition (20.09.2025)

So many great ideas for sessions at #FroGSconf that we had to add some extra rooms to the schedule! 💪 🐸

@ez @maaretp @coderbyheart
Can only endorse this wholeheartedly! The #FroGSConf events I've been to were awesome for having insightful conversations and making valuable and lasting new connections. They also helped me further in tangible ways and offered a welcoming space to try things out and learn together. Still sad for any instance I missed in the past, and continuously hopeful to make it to the next event! 🐸

We're one month away from the next Friends of Good Software event. It's free, online, and on a weekday this time for all you weekday folks.

If you're looking for those valuable conversations you have during the breaks, in the hallway, over long meals at conferences, and want to skip all the pesky travel and presentations, #FroGSConf is for you.
