https://thegeomob.com/ https://thegeomob.com/ (https://twitter.com/geomob https://twitter.com/geomob) is in the niche of geospatial tech (maps, routing, data, visualization). 4-5 presentations per evening, 6x per year. Audience is muted in Zoom during presentations. We're un-muting after a presentation so everybody can clap. It kind of works.
- ohjeez 6y agoI'm hoping for more than "it kind of works." <grin> Ideally, I'm looking for cool things that organizers have done. For instance, my editor told me about attending an online event run by a winemaker... who spoke from the vineyard. Meanwhile Tom was in his own kitchen with a glass of wine. That would be a better experience than he'd have had in any hotel conference room. And another friend wrote about a conference he attended: > I think anything online is almost by definition ‘short attention span theater’ and the organizers took note of that with shorter panel sessions. Instead of a half hour to 45 minutes, these ran 10-15 minutes with four panelists. Extremely brief introductions, right to the point, on-topic questions, and so it went. Pretty effective even for fairly weighty topics like impact of AI on business.
