Forum owner conference coming up: ForumCon
 

ForumCon is coming up on Thursday, June 13th 2013 in San Francisco, California.

The ForumCon agenda is now online. http://www.forumcon.com/agenda

Last year's ForumCon was a pretty high quality event with good content and quality networking opportunities.

As so vB is also listed as a sponsor. I wonder who will be going from vB's side to San Fransico.

Probably not me, its a bit of a long way from where I am.

I only go to conventions held in Las Vegas.

Come on Paul, take a swim across the pond

I'll not be attending personally, but Jane from Socially Uncensored will be at Forum Con 2013

She's kind of interested in this & will be in the area anyways. So its not something out of her way (as it usually would). I told her I think it will be a waste of time and money, but if she's going anyways. :rolleyes:

From what I can understand of Forum Con is you have a bunch of people patting themselves on the back on a job well done and promoting themselves. No one outside of being an administrator of a large forum or business will be there. :rolleyes:

Now Comic Con is something I could get behind. Real people actually go there. :p

hehe - I assure you there will be real people there.... I mean not even sort of real but really real... I talked to a few of them today!;)

Tell Jane to find me and say hi! We have a really diverse and interesting set of people coming along this year from small to large forums and other types of online communities managers.. It is shame you can't join. Are you sure we can't tempt you to join??... :)

I have other plans in the works... I'll actually be overseas for about 1 - 2 months. Partly for fun, but partly work related as well.

I'll pass along your message.... :)

Although I still think Forum Con is part self promotion and part self congratulations. But I guess I'll hear about it later & get a more "inside scoop"

Are you against self promotion? ;)

lmao.

I can't say I'm against it. But I think going to a place where everyone is there to basically promote themselves at the same time, isn't productive.

It's like having used car sales men or life insurance agents gathering together in one place; to sell their product and the only customers are themselves. ..... Hope you catch my meaning.
