I think the days of conducting a small conference in the physical world
should be replaced by something like a video conference over internet... :)
Except that at nearly every conference I've been to, the overwhelming
benefit to me has been in the interaction with people in the hallways, at
meals, and at the bar. Sure, the technical learning is valuable, too, but it's
the conversations with people about that technology that gives me new ideas on
how to use it. Also, I've never gotten a job offer from someone who was
connected to the same internet video feed...
That of course is very true, but I am wondering if conferences across
the board aren't all much smaller/less-attended than they used to be,
given this interweb thingie and remoting capabilities today.
