Cal Evans:
Announcing The CFP Report
Nov 06, 2015 @ 15:12:20

Whether you're an aspiring speaker or one that's presented many times, it can be difficult to keep track of which conferences have open Call for Papers and what they're offering to speakers who are selected. Cal Evans has started up a new project that provides a curated listing of conferences in the form of a mailing list to keep you up to date and informed - The CFP Report.

I want to talk about a new project I have called "The CFP Report" and invite you to join. [...] A few months ago, I was chatting with my good friend Brandon Savage when he posited an idea. "What if we setup a mailing list for people who wanted to know about open CFPs?"

[...] The more I thought about it, the more I kinda liked the idea. I did some research and yes, there are other good services that are doing similar things. However, I couldn’t find anything that would do the job I wanted done. Specifically, I wanted not only to know about CFPs, I wanted to know if they were CFPs to which I would want to submit.

He talks about his though processes for wanting to create the mailing list and what it provides. The list (or a "push notification service" as he calls it) is only delivered via email to those subscribed and covers not only PHP CFPs but also Python, Javascript and Ruby. The service is free and all it takes is a quick signup and you're good to go. If you've been interested in getting out and trying your hand speaking at a conference, this is the perfect way to keep up to date right in the same inbox you use every day.
