'''Gnomedex''' is an annual technical conference, coordinated by [[Lockergnome]] founder [[Chris Pirillo]], that began in late 2001, and has so far been held six times. It is not affiliated with the [[desktop environment]] [[GNOME]]. The conference is typically held over the summer on a weekend, and focuses on leading-edge social and technical trends, most recently including [[RSS (file format)|RSS]] aggregation and [[podcast]]ing]].

It has been traditionally held in [[Des Moines, Iowa|Des Moines]], [[Iowa]], Pirillo's home town, but due to its size, moved to [[Lake Tahoe]] in 2004 and then [[Seattle]] in 2005 and 2006, where Pirillo now makes his home. The 2007 conference is scheduled for August 9-11 in Seattle.
