#42Microsoft Build Conference ( http://www.buildwindows.com/ ) and Ignite ( http://ignite.microsoft.com/#fbid=cOhyoiLsRD3) would be a good one for developers and IT Professionals working on Microsoft stack

#43You can find most relevant talks on youtube.
The value in conferences is only mildly related to the actual talks. Meeting people and the discussions and connections are the real value. Like, ClueCon, for VoIP devs. It's rather haphazardly managed, many of the talks are useless, some are even just pure ads. But if you spend time to meet people it can be totally worth going.
>> The value in conferences is only mildly related to the actual talks.
Agreed.

#44PyCon ( https://us.pycon.org/2015/ ) is always a blast. It's large, but has an amazing sense of community. You will find at least three or four amazing talks each day, on a variety of subjects. The posters area will expose you to all kinds of cool academic and other projects. The Expo Hall is always full of hip companies (giving away lots of great SWAG, of course). I guarantee you will leave inspired.
Any Idea how much this will cost? I am a student in college and I was interested in going to PyCon since python was my first programming language -- and do Students have a different rate than regular tickets?
You can apply for financial aid and go for free. I did that for PyCon 2013.

#49Why has no one added JSConf. It is an amazing conference with a limited set of people and very good talks. And its a 3 day conference where one day is pure fun. I attended it once and wish to attend again. http://2015.jsconf.us/
I second this.
Went to JSConf US this year in the beautiful Amelia Islands (right off the coast of Jacksonville, FL) and had an absolute blast!
Extremely well organized, knowledgeable, and a ton of fun!
