(Bit of a shameless plug...)
I think smaller computer conventions can do quite well at the Oregon
Convention Center. It's just a matter of picking the right rooms. We're
holding the WebVisions 2003 event there on Friday, in Lobby 'B' and
Meeting Room B113 - B116. I was just there with a couple of PTP members
yesterday making a check for the wifi arrangements and was surprised at
the amount of space we'll have, and very happy about the much higher
ceilings than you get in a hotel cellar. :)
Here's the Plug: http://www.webvisionsevent.org -> This Friday, 5+
speakers, and wrap party just $75. Something for everyone.
