Lotusphere Comes to You updates

February 21 2007

The Lotusphere Comes to You website has a number of updates, with new cities and dates posted.  The specific question from a prior posting about Paris has been answered, and there are now a huge number of additional European and North American events.

As for my own schedule...

  • Next week, I'm in Warsaw on Tuesday the 27th for a "Lotus Day" at IBM.  This is not the advertised Lotusphere Comes to You event...just a one off run by IBM and partner Dysant.
  • On Thursday, March 1, I'll be in Warrington (near Manchester), England, for Lotusphere Comes to You, sponsored by Triangle.  I have just learned that Bill Buchan will also be speaking, and Stuart McIntyre is hosting.  Should be a good day, and as I'm not flying out that evening, I'm sure some of us will get together informally after the meeting.
  • I'll be at the Chicago LCTY event on March 7.
  • We're doing a Wisconsin event in Fon Du Lac on March 13.  Not formally an LCTY, more like a user group meeting
  • On March 19, I'll be in Tel Aviv for LCTY (that date still shows as March 13 on the LCTY website, but will be changed)
  • New to the schedule, on March 22 I'll be in Lisbon for LCTY , my first visit to Portugal.
  • In April, I'm speaking at a few more of the North American LCTY events...more on those as we get closer.

    Ed - might be the wrong place to ask and if so I apologize, but are the slides from the 2007n Lotusphere sessions available in one location currently? I attended and didn't download them right after the conference when they were available and I can't seem to readily locate them now.

    In short, you're outta luck. The Lotusphere Online site has been shut down so you can't access the presentations anymore. Even if the site were up they never provided a single downloadable file of all the presentations. They did that for Lotusphere 2006, but not for 2007.

    Ach!

    Oh well. Actually I wasn't looking for a single downloadable file, I would have been happy to pick and choose, I was just looking for a single location where I could get them. I've noticed older presentations can be found at the Sandbox, any idea if there are plans to put the 2007 ones there at some point in the future?

    Thanks for the response!

    @Ed - Looking forward to finally meeting you in person at the Chicago LCTY.

    Slightly more interesting than my LCTY schedule... no offence intended to the good people of Woking, Swindon, London and Manchester.

    Don't suppose you're free for Dublin on the 28th of March?

    @5 - What are you suggesting my friend ;-)

    Ed, it will be fabulous to see you in Warrington next week, I'll try to get some of the Warrington-based folks to recommend venues for a get together that evening. I'm sure that Bill will join us for a few drinks too...

    Portugal. You kidding?

  1. 8  Ed Brill http://www.edbrill.com | 2/21/2007 4:03:37 PM

    @7 no, not kidding... I will be tired :-) but I will be in Lisbon on 22/23 March.

    @6 - shame I didn't get to do Minstead. I miss out on all the exotic locations ;o) See you Friday Stu.

    @5 sorry I can't make Dublin -- that's 2x this year. :-(

    No Brazil again? :( I wish that would change!

  1. 12  Bob Brodsky  | 2/21/2007 8:06:56 PM

    STILL no Atlanta

    :(

  1. 13  Ed Brill http://www.edbrill.com | 2/22/2007 7:45:21 AM

    @12 there is an Atlanta date on there (March 21) -- there just isn't a link to register for it. As it is a business partner-led event, I'll see if I can track down the partner who is running it. I have a guess...

    Glad to see you going to Portugal! IMHO it really needs (or at least it did when I left) a "push" for Notes

    Vegas is on March 13 - too bad you'll be in Wisconsin! (no offence to Wisconson(ites? ers? ists?) - I'm talking about the weather).

    I was in Lisbon last July (and lived in Portugal back in the 80's), I know you;ll be busy but let me know if you want travel tips....Lots of myPOrtugal pics here: { Link }

    Let me know who is running Miami/ft. lauderdale at the now infamous Seminole Hard Rock Casino.

  1. 17  Ed Brill http://www.edbrill.com | 2/23/2007 10:08:42 AM

    @16 - it's Perficient .. name listed at the top of the registration form.

  1. 18  Ed Brill http://www.edbrill.com | 2/23/2007 12:43:19 PM

    @13 the Atlanta event is being run by Optimus Solutions. I have contact info if you need it.

  1. 19  Keith Brooks http://kbmsg.blogspot.com | 2/23/2007 1:19:48 PM

    Thanks Ed, guess the fine print on top threw me :-)

    I had been in discussions with another BP about doing it, which is why I asked.

  1. 20  Brian  | 2/23/2007 1:42:42 PM

    Motor city on the 15th. It's just a quick flight from wisconsin.

  1. 21  Ed Brill http://www.edbrill.com | 2/23/2007 1:50:14 PM

    wish i could, but I'll be on a plane to the mideast on the 15th...

    The good news is that Tallahassee has been added. The bad news is that they spelled it "Talahassee", { Link }

  1. 23  Timothy Briley  | 2/28/2007 1:23:19 PM

    I don't know if it was Ed or someone else who got the spelling corrected overnight, but thanks!

    For the second time this week, I get to say, "I'm good, but I'm not THAT good". Unless the person who fixed it happens to be a blog reader. I hadn't had a chance to follow-up on your posting, so glad it's been fixed anyway!
