As I'm sure has been said before, if it were just the talks it
probably wouldn't be worth it. But conferences are sooooooooooo
much more than just the talks. Its the conversations over
breakfast/lunch/dinner/ between talks and long into the night
(sometimes too long). Its the networking, the hacking, the face
to face. The talks are usually pretty good too.
The conference is definitely not dead, I'm going to one in San
José in 2 weeks, sure the talks look really interesting but the
main reason is to talk to other people to get stuff done.
Then I'm not sure why you're saying any of this to me, as almost
nothing you write contradicts anything I wrote.
If you're still not sure what I mean, read this long post I just
wrote fisking Adam's similar post:
