I would rather go to this conference than the Governors or National conferences as it relates more to what hurricanecity is all about media/ internet info. For several reasons I will not attend any more conferences with my explanations below as usual in bullet points.
1)Too expensive $250.00--$300 for national & 150 for governors.They could lower the prices by inviting the general public increasing crowds & revenue. Plus my business does not allow me the time to pay & lose money at the same time.
2)Specifically in this case too far away from Florida Texas may as well be California.
3)Most conference workshops SUCK with the exception of the NHC & Dr Gray /Klotzbach predictions. Nice to see at least Mark & Mike and other chasers get invited to do a speech that is what separates this conference as more interesting, the other conferences flat out reject internet presentations.
4)I have put in for a workshop for a presentation of the city database & rankings to all conferences only to get rejected. As one of the first tracking sites & live broadcast's on the internet I could share some stories as well, but unfortunately  what seems to sell is having a camera on your dashboard and very little else. I know the people that make these decisions and I know their mod-us operendous it is sad but that is the way it is.
