Re: From recession to reset: Three learning questions for #ASAE10

It seems like this period of transition would be an ideal time to hold meetings drawing from the strong points of barcamps and unconferences. The object would be to offer _very_ affordable, short, intensive educational sessions that would focus on enabling meetings professionals in social media tools and practices that will drive more purposeful meetings. I enjoyed your presentation at ASAE and am grateful for the fact that you made it available for those of us who could not attend. It is an example of the process by which meetings can extend their reach and influence in the future.

At meetingscollaborative.com we are clearly seeing more postings and reviews of sites that are in the drive-in markets. These sites can be characterized as having charming locations and very attentive meeting staffs but are located in cities that slightly "downstream" from major meeting markets.
