She's Geeky Unplugged: Day 2 |
|
Blog
|
|
This morning I walked into the NCLR meeting facility to the announcement that the building had no power. There was talk of canceling the conference, but everyone who showed up wanted to go ahead. We pulled out two large construction type flashlights to give us a “camp fire” and we had a small gas burner to heat up water for coffee and tea. Everyone pulled together to make the necessary adjustments to the room and bring the session indicators into the lobby which has a glass front. Thus was born a technical conference without technology. It was wonderful! Our own She’s Geeky camping trip.

DojoCon: Birth of a Conference |
|
Blog
|
|
If you've ever spent more than 10 minutes on the Discovery Channel, you'll know that the, um, "miracle of birth" is less miracle and more placenta. Watching an information security conference take its first squalling breath is another, way less gross, story - one that any event organizer can tell you is preternatural in its own right.
