PLUGIN PAVILION @ NAB
Somewhat of a plugz developer borg - the top plugz for every popular compositing, editorial and animation applications can be found next door to each other. GenArts was missing from the aisles this year, but Todd's solo booth is only a few steps away.
I can't remember when the Plugin Pavilion started, but its format has been evolving - and this year's presentations showed that collective is growing stronger.
Here are links to the companies and (if I've written them) some articles (tips, tricks, news) about the various companies. I'll update this over the next few months - cuz there's a ton of stuff coming out - these guys never stop. Here they are in no particular order. Feel free to post links (regarding the plugin pavilion NAB2007 only please) in the comments.

Color Finesse is second nature. I suppose that's why I haven't written anything about SyntheticAperture anywhere. I was raised in a briar patch (watching scopes in the machine room).
