ROFLCon is a conference that is attempting to gather in one place all of the people responsible for the internet’s most popular memes. Their confirmed guest list includes such luminaries as Homestar Runner, xkcd, Drew Curtis of Fark, Tron Guy and many others, as well as a bunch of people that they are inviting to come out.

Anil Dash, who will be in attendance, posted a great write-up on the conference, which is scheduled to take place April 25-27, 2008 in Cambridge, MA.

I’m seriously considering going to this event. The lobbycon alone would be worth it.
