Good answer. It feels a lot to me like a good conference where you get
to see everyone speak and meet up with them in the bar afterwards and
without the expensive fees and airfare. Plus you can ask the hard
questions.

When somebody in Toronto (inevitably) asks me "What's the different
between the IxDA and [insert other group]?" I always answer "We give
anybody interested a voice and platform to talk about design with
their peers."
So many other groups will only let you speak at events if you have
masters degrees or high profile experience.. we really try to create
an open space where anybody can participate, whether they just
graduated or have been working for 20 years.
