Do you have a question about how you should code in 2010? Write us and we’ll ask the experts.

Princesses have their castles, but the big news in Orlando this weekend is that the Coding Queens are coming to town!

This week in Orlando, nationally known coding & billing experts like Marvel Hammer, Melanie Witt, Leslie Johnson & Barbara Cobuzzi and more will be teaching classes to 500 conference attendees.

I’ll be soaking up all the good things they have to teach me, and writing up real time highlights just for Coding News readers. Some colleagues from the Coding Alerts will also be there to teach classes and and pick up insider tips for their publications. I’m looking forward to seeing Jennifer Godreau, Suzanne Leder, Deborah Dorton, Ellen Garver & Leigh DeLozier.

YOUR MISSION, SHOULD YOU CHOOSE TO ACCEPT IT: There’s so much going on at the conference, this reporter doesn’t know where to go first. Is there a session you’d like me to write about in Coding News. Do you have a question about coding in 2010 you’d like me to find the answer to? Check out this conference agenda and tell me where Coding News should go and what questions we should ask.
