AU 2007, Extensive Blog Coverage

LAS VEGAS, NV - Though Autodesk University may be the worlds biggest CAD user meeting, for every CAD user that is here, there may be a thousand more that stayed home. Those people will be happy to know that AU will covered in detail by a small army of bloggers. Look at this list of blogs I have found to virtually attend AU. You may not get to attend all the useful sessions or meet Lynn Allen in person but on the other hand, you won't catch anything in Las Vegas (why do they insist on having AU in this godforsaken place?)

The only benefit to LV is that it is central. If I were to go, LV is just 2 hours by air; Orlando is 10.
