Reason #4: The Conversation

by Eric Norlin on Sep.24, 2008, under conference topics, general

Reason #4 to come to Defrag is simple: The Conversation.

If you look at the Defrag agenda , you’ll see that what might normally be an hour long keynote is only 45 minutes, or what might normally be a 45 minute breakout session is only 30 minutes. That’s by design and for a reason: Defrag is not designed to be a conference where you, the “attendee,” sits passively and gets beaten over the head with powerpoint slides. Rather, Defrag is designed for you, the participant, to interact with your fellow participants around topics. As such, our sessions aren’t meant to be “listening times” - they’re meant to be “conversation times.”

When you come to Defrag, you’ll find yourself joining in the sessions — rapidly. The conversation really is what it’s all about. Join us.
