HostingCon Blog: Networking is fun

We’re three days in to the convention and I just attended my first session. I went the entire Monday and Tuesday without sitting in on any sessions, but to be honest, I don’t feel bad about that because the networking on the booth floor has been incredibly enjoyable.

HostingCon Blog: All partied out

Well, we’re coming into the home stretch here, and I would say it’s been a very good conference. I had a great time shooting pool at The WHIR/RatePoint Lucky Strike event, with the guys from Spry and Tucows.

HostingCon Blog: Why are we here? And other existential questions.

Before any convention, one of the smartest things you can do is sit down with your colleagues or yourself, and map out specifically what you want to accomplish/take away from the few short days you’ve been given to network in your industry.

HostingCon Blog: The Future of Web Hosting Marketing

I just listened to a great, short talk by Derek Vaughan, Chief Marketing Officer of The TechPad Agency. Derek gave his vision of some key concepts hosting marketers will need to get their heads around if they’re to reach upcoming generations of web hosting customers.

HostingCon Blog: Manage your show day

There is a lot to see, hear and do this year at HostingCon. A. Lot. I couldn’t find an .ics import-friendly calendar on the HostingCon official site this morning (maybe there is one, I couldn’t see it), so I whipped one up in iCal on my Mac to share.

HostingCon Blog: On the road

So, here I am, sat in the passenger seat of the car on the highway while Paul (the_pm) drives. We should be in Chicago in 60 minutes. I can’t wait!
