As she does on a regular basis, my friend Karen Lopez ( blog | @datachick) is hosting a new webinar this week hosted by Dataversity. The topic, as the title of this post suggests, is about the good, bad, and craziness of normalization. The event is this Thursday at 2:00p Eastern Daylight (GMT -4).

Why am I sharing this? Well, I’m going to be there, too, playing the role of sidekick, because Karen’s the one that actually knows what she’s talking about 😉 . These webinars are always a good time, and you usually learn something, to boot.

It is free to everyone, but registration is required. More information and a link to register is available on this page.

If you join, stop in early while we do some audio checks, hang out and chat a bit beforehand. It’s a fun, informal time before the webinar proper starts. Stay tuned in via Twitter, as well. Monitor the #heartdata hashtag to participate in the conversation.

Hope to see you there!
