Quick question... Who would you travel to hear speak at a conference or convention? Who do you think is a great thinker or influencer in the webhosting industry or from another industry that you believe has a pertinent message that crosses boundaries? Please feel free to throw out suggestions. Thanks a bunch
I personally don't find any person to be interesting enough to go out of my way to hear. What catches my attention more is in-depth technical workshops/classes where something advanced can be learned that would be useful to me. Revealing secret information is also a good way to get my attention. For example if a very long term road-map was shared.
SAS methods Some groups like us (Web Empowered Church) are Software as Service providers - Who else is - perhaps a session for this would be nice. Perhaps folks doing SAS using Joomla, Typo3, Drupal - etc
I bet you cPanel folks either have or could compile an amazing faq of common problems and solutions based on support tickets. A session dedicated to reviewing many of these would probably catch a lot of interest. ps. items complex enough that you would tell folks to submit a ticket, not just the basic stuff that everyone knows or could find the solution to with a quick search.
I dont like to hear the speak of all,as everyone say what they see in their surroundings. If something is different and the way of speaking is good then i will.
Thanks for the suggestions! What I'm really looking for are suggestions on any individuals in the industry that you are interested in hearing from. Talks would not be sales pitches but educationally based sessions. The question is, who do you respect in the hosting industry and who would you like to listen to? (apart from cPanel folks, of course) :p
I'd love to toss some suggestions but unfortunately I don't have any specifics in mind. My idea for the "solutions to problems which are common in the cPanel helpdesk" could be an easy one for a cPanel support lead though
