WebVisions'08. . .the place to be, May twenty-two, twenty-three!
This is a great event. Locally run, but attracts speakers and attendees from across the country (and I'm sure a few from other countries). And, as people have mentioned, a very reasonable price. Great value!
Workshops are great and keynotes are usually excellent among lots of other information to be had...they do a really sweet job with this conference! Social Media workshop..here I come!
