Introducing CFP Manager to Manage Speaking Engagements for the Team

May 1, 2026

Are you speaking at Meetups, conferences, and other events frequently? How are you keeping track of the call for papers (CFPs) that you've submitted? Are you using messy spreadsheets?

Tracking your submitted sessions can be messy and complicated. If you're doing this as part of a team, managing those upcoming engagements can become increasingly difficult.

I'd like to introduce CFP Manager, a tool I created to manage the full speaker experience from before the event, after the event, and your next event. No more spreadsheets, no more guessing, just an overall improvement to your process. And the best part is that you can sign up and start using it for free.

I'm pleased to announce that the 31st episode of The Polyglot Developer Podcast, featuring Adrienne Tacke and Alex Ziskind, has published to all of the popular podcast networks.

This episode, titled Developer Education through Books, Video Courses, and Conferences, shares the personal stories of three developers when it comes to how they learn and expand their skill arsenal, as well as how they use their knowledge to produce content for other developers to consume in the format of books and courses.

Adrienne, Alex, and myself share some publishing options and the amount of work that goes into each, with the end goal of honing our skills and helping out other developers.

This past week I had the honor of attending the consumer electronics show (CES) in Las Vegas, Nevada. This had been a lifelong goal of mine to attend the event and get a firsthand look at all the latest and greatest technology releasing in 2019.

While mostly unrelated to development and the material typically found on The Polyglot Developer, I wanted to give a summary of the event with some of the things I enjoyed and some of the things I didn't about the event.

Turns out I will be speaking at the Android Developer Conference (AnDevCon) in Santa Clara, California on December 1st, 2015 to December 3rd, 2015.

If you’re unfamiliar with AnDevCon, it is a big deal. It is probably one of the better, if not the best, development conferences focusing on everything Android.

Per the AnDevCon website:

AnDevCon is the technical conference for professional software developers and engineers building Android apps. Offering mobile app development training, embedded Android secrets, and Android app development tutorials and classes, AnDevCon is the biggest, most info-packed, most practical Android conference in the world.
