It was my understanding that CS is more of a conference-going community rather than a paper-writing community.

It is true that CS is more conference-oriented, however most top conferences require that a paper be submitted, reviewed, and (if accepted) published in the conference proceedings before you can present your work there. This does vary by discipline though: algs/theory is more traditional journal oriented, I believe.

Yeah, I'd say ACM proceedings are where most of the good papers are published.
