We kept meeting our favourite people three timezones away, so we are putting the lot of us on one beach to see what happens.
One island
Bali. Cheaper for most of you than staying home in whichever city you'd be flying out of, and it has been doing something to visiting minds a thousand years longer than wifi has.
One camp
There is no programme committee. Someone stands up with a session nobody asked for and the board fills. We have watched this mechanism outperform every conference we have ever paid to attend.
One rule of thumb
Bring the obsession you're embarrassed about. What gets scheduled here is closer to a garden than to anything with a Gantt chart behind it.
