Re: [WISPA] Wireless ISP's (shows)
The benefit of the Conference, is you find people that you didn;t know existed, that you wouldn't normally know to invite. Hearing their comments in conferences, is what allows people to learn about others. I jsut recently said, "I don't need the conference, just the people in it". But that statement actually was not true. There is a tremendous value in the People Networking, but it is not the ONLY value. The best shows are ones that bringtogeather smart people, and Quality sessions. ISPCON for example has always led the industry with intelligent instruction (content) in its conference session. I've watched ISPs take notes in a session, and come back th next year toughting their success at something, knowing they learned it from teh previous visit at ISPCON. I also got a lot of value from last year's exhibit flow, learning of new products. KNowing your Vendors face to face also has value, to work togeather better.

Re: [WISPA] Wireless ISP's (shows)
Then you would enjoy ISPCON. Because the ISP-CEO evening is just that - everyone talking about what is and is not working. (And the peer-to-peer networking that happens all day and night, until John M. decided to play poker :) Justin Wilson wrote: If I got to a show I ask myself the question most probably ask. What am I going to learn from this? I don't want to go just to hear about new products. I want to go and actually learn things I can apply when I get back home. When we were at the last WISPCON about 6 or 7 of us sat around for 45 minutes and just discussed various stuff. That alone was worth it to me. To see how others are handling issues, certain situations, and the like. Being able to walk up and draw a diagram for someone to see is priceless. Otherwise I would rather spend my money to go to a mikrotik training class, re-up my comtrain cert and maybe go for instructor, etc. Justin -- "Life is unfair, but root password Helps" --- Justin S.
