LobbyCon: coming to a hotel lobby near you

Another call for a self-organizing event.

Sean Bonner is absolutely right. The ONLY value of BlogOn were the people. The conference was a sponsor driven advertisement – with a $10k entrance fee.

WE (the people) need to just find someplace to hang out – BOTH in meatspace and virtual space and show eher the REAL power is.

I suggest either the Phoenix Motel or the Hyatt Embarcadero.

Open Source conference – NO entrance fee, no nothing. If a sponsor wants to get involved – have them:

    - print t-shirts or other SWAG ande give it out
    - just be there, be smart and leave the dogma at home
    - think collective drumming circle
