[Podcast] How to be an Insanely Great Conference Attendee

Work and personal time is busier than ever. The economy is the worst it’s been in decades. Taking 2 or 3 days to go to a conference is a big investment, both in time and money. For a few people, conferences are a boondoggle, but for most of us we want to make the most out of our investment. Yesterday, we had the chance to sit down with frequent conference attendee, speaker and organizer Tony Karrer to talk about how he maximizes his conference experience. During this almost 12 minute podcast, we talk about:

How to prepare for a conference before you get there
How to network with other people (even when you’re shy)
How to design your own conference experience
