Post by: Lynn on 22 Aug 2011 09:13:07 AM
I am attending the IOD conference this year. Anyone else here attending?  Any thoughts on the various sessions offered?

I would LOVE to go, but can't get my employer to agree to it. If I manage to persuade them otherwise, I will look you up and buy you a beer!

Enjoy the conference!!

Pity they are not agreeable. It is a very worthwhile event!

Agreed! Especially when a muppet buys the beer! :-)

I have been to Cognos conferences in the past and I can assure you there is absolutely no drinking that goes on.

Nope.

Not a drop.

None whatsoever!!

Just lots of very serious and studious people eagerly learning all they can  ;)

Don't be too sure of that !!  There's always drinking on the side especially when you are in Vegas ! Not difficult to sneak out and come back in  ;)

Can I come with you and hold your coat while you present? I'm getting desperate to find a way to get there now... :-)

I will be attending this year, I still haven't taken a look at the sessions but will hopefully get a chance to spend plenty of time in the lab with the Cognos folks from IBM

Excellent! That makes three of you going so far. You should all meet up for a Cognoise beer!  I would join you, but there's the small issue of being 6000 miles away to contend with.

Enjoy!
