It’s called Spike Night, and it’s a real-world look at managing operational spikes in two interesting, high-scale businesses (MySpace and MLB.com).

It wasn’t the easiest thing to bring together – not least because I have hardly had time to think about extracurricular activities, but also because it seems scary to potential participants, and scary means lots of approvals, etc. – but I’m excited and it should be good fun. See you in San Jose!
