Coming up very quickly is World Wide Technology’s (www.wwt.com) annual Geek Day, March 10th 2011 (http://www.wwt.com/geekday/.) I’m very much looking forward to the event for two reasons:
The event is focused around live interactive demo’s from sponsor technology companies with breakout sessions chosen by the attendees via online voting. My favorite parts are that the sponsors aren’t allowed to do lead collecting (badge scanning you know from conferences), gimmicky swag giveaways, or stock their booths with gobs of marketing fluff. It’s true focus is the demo, and engineer to engineer discussion. See the link above for more information, and the video below for some customer feedback on the events. I hope to see you here in St. Louis in March!
