I don’t normally go in for conferences, they seem over self important, money making schemes full of speakers who rarely speak from any basis of credibility. They remind me a lot of university lectures except you didn’t have to directly pay for those and at least the speakers had academic credentials.
Despite this dislike of conferences, the Carson Workshops Summit (’summit’, now thats classic managementese - it doesn’t bode well!) on Feb 8th in London has some pretty inspiring speakers from the latest and greatest web sites at the moment:
