When I was over in Paris for Le Web 3 ’07 last year, one of the friends I met the year before, \[Stephanie\](http://climbtothestars.org/), was in buoyant mood. She was telling everyone she could about her new venture, Going Far, and the series of events she’s hoping to run. The first of these is \[Going Solo\](http://going-solo.net/), a conference for freelancers and small business owners taking place in Switzerland on May 16th. The general thrust of the conference looks fascinating: everything from the hard business end of closing deals, through to meeting your social needs when you work alone. It’s the sort of niche micro-topic conference that the internet can really enable. \[!\[Olivier & Stephanie\](https://i1.wp.com/www.onemanandhisblog.com/content/images/2008/02/2121042432\_e2f7eda2dd-thumb-200x150.jpg?resize=200%2C150)\](https://i2.wp.com/www.onemanandhisblog.com/content/images/2008/02/2121042432\_e2f7eda2dd.jpg)And because I trust Stephanie and the plans she outlined sounded so cool, I’m giving the conference a free plug here. (Yup. I’m not getting paid a penny for the plug. I can hear members of our sales teams clutching at their hearts from here…) 

I’m seriously considering going along. I’m not actually a freelancer or small business owner, but you never know what the future might bring…
