__Internet culture conference ROFLCon is hitting the road. Next stop, San Francisco.
For ROFLConThing in August, organizers plan to reprise the geeky goodness that made this year's inaugural ROFLCon memefest in Boston such a success.
So far, the lineup includes: Upcoming.org founder Andy Baio presenting a piece on the phenomenon of the Star Wars Kid; Ben Huh, CEO of LOLcat aggregation site I Can Has Cheezburger? will be giving a talk titled "The State of the LOL"; and Sean O'Steel, founder of the Twitter Fail Whale fan club, will deliver a talk on the history of the group.
There's even talk of bringing in beauty queen line-flubber Miss South Carolina, most recently seen in Weezer's "Pork and Beans" video, to host the ceremonies.
Tickets for ROFLConThing in San Francisco are $10; the mini-conference kicks off Aug. 29.
