Another avenue to consider in terms of getting more marketplace exposure
could be to hold our annual conference concurrently with a conference or
expo held by another (larger) organization. In this fashion, we free
ourselves from many of the logistical duties of conference coordination and
at the same time enable cross-over marketing.
Also, in light of articles such as this
http://www.techweb.com/article/showArticle?articleID=222002611§ion=news
it would seem highly appropriate to make a strong showing at conferences
such as Gov 2.0 in May 2010 as referenced by Drew
http://www.gov2expo.com/gov2expo2010/public/cfp/82
Anyway, just another dimension to explore <smile>. And personally, I think
it would be totally kewl to have a 24-hour 'around the world' conference
that I was excited enough about to want to stay up all night to attend

Subject: RE: [marketing] Virtual OOoCon 2011?
It's useless to discuss the pros and cons of the current OOoCon and the
Virtual one, they're all quite straight. the key issue is that which way
could benefit us best, certainly the current one, I don't want to wakeup at
2 o'clock in the morning to do the presentation as I am in China. And I
don't think I still have the energy to attend any of the presentation
afterward.
The idea is that we could simply keep the current OOoCon, that's our annul
event. Why should we cancel it? Shall we cancel the Olympics instead.
the Virtual OOoCon could only apply to the specific area, say , European
OOoCon, and we could have a Asian one, but only be the complementarity.
