It was very well organised and the seminars were interesting but the constant # and taking pictures every 2 seconds was exhausting to watch and the social skills (you can't be that shy if you're turning up to a conference) of some were the 1970s diethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04657242520631105635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-900246097326241068.post-23823977930983154792014-06-22T18:53:05.126+04:002014-06-22T18:53:05.126+04:00I don't think I'll be going again, not bec...I don't think I'll be going again, not because anyone was unfriendly (though I was ignored a few times when I tried to talk to strangers) but because it was so crowded!

Its always suffered from these problems and you have to just treat people the same as if you would normally. If someone blocks you on twitter and you are having a conversation with them you are quite entitled to ask why that was.. perhaps you upset them.. perhaps they Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05514064837437726115noreply@blogger.com
