Hi Neerav, > True you havent done them yet Russ :-) > > Call it a premonition, which was proved right as you say you will > interview them in the leadup to WE04.
This is not the case at all and I want to squish that assumption right away. The "Features" section of the WSG site has absolutely nothing to do with the Web Essentials 04 conference (apart from proudly wearing the banner as do all WSG pages). The fact that the speakers at WE04 and some of those being interviewed happen to match at some point is due to their profile in this area of the industry, and the order they were asked/responded. > Out of curiousity can your reveal the rough numbers of people > paid up to > attend so far? I may think about it depending on finances > post financial > year end. Ummm... No, but suffice to say that it is around our expectations for early bird registration (and a reminder now that if you do it in this financial year it's $100 cheaper and may help you spend up this years training budget so *.gov.au people need to get on it if they want it out of this financial year). I really hope you can come Neerav. Back to the Features section... It will be a place for full feature articles as well, we have just started with the 10Q4 series of interviews to get it going. Any WSG Member can submit a feature article. There will be an editorial process involved, maybe through a select committee of reviewers. Anyone have any articles they would like to submit (direct to [EMAIL PROTECTED] please)? As for the original question from Dante, Russ selects the interviews he does and that's based largely on the people he knows and reads (otherwise he wouldn't know what to ask). If the question is "How do I get interviewed" then that will need to be done directly with Russ ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) but if it's "Can I suggest someone" then please go ahead. Remember, this section is designed to draw audience to the WSG site (as well as entertain and inform the members) so pretty well only people that are high profile in the core WGS areas or that have just done something to draw attention to themselves (released a related book etc.) are likely to be interviewed here.
