You Wish You Did Conferences Like These Guys

And maybe you do, but you should still take a look at their blog. Like so many organizations, 360Conferences offers specialized tech conferences to developers. But unlike so many organizations, they do it really, really well.

How?

By putting customers first.

By focusing on content.

By building community (both in their conferences and beyond) into their model.

And to think--they just started out as attendees who wanted to build a conference they would like to attend.

Yeah, thanks! I'm blushing. :)

Well-deserved praise is easy.

Why did i not find you sooner?! Tom + John are inspiring too.

Your innovative attendee-centered approach makes your blog "catnip" for us speakers too.

Your green tips would be helpful for 2 well-moderated online groups of meeting and event planners MeCo and MiForum.
