forex trading is about descipline, money management and risk management. One need not be an economist to predict the forex market. One need not keep watching market through out the day (and night) to trade in forex market.

Dave’s Wordpress Blog » What’s rotten about tech conferences — Thu, 16 Feb 2006 22:59:04 +0000

[…] Marc Canter explains why it’s so awful that leading tech conferences sell speaking slots. How to put this. Marc is a business guy, but he also puts himself out there, in ways that most of us can’t even conceive of ourselves. I’ve known him for a long time, and I know he means what he says in this piece. You know it’s okay to make money, really, I’m not just saying that. I like to make money myself, and a good portion of my time is spent trying to make money, and sometimes I actually do. So I’m not preaching purity, and I don’t begrudge the conference promoters their profit. They run commercial conferences, they’re supposed to make money. But like Marc, I feel pain when I see all those people come together to find out what’s new, and see that the most important stuff, the stuff that requires the most cooperation, the stuff that I’m totally sure these guys are all going to be basing their businesses on next year and the year after, isn’t there at all. They just don’t include it. I forgot that I used to beg Tim O’Reilly to let me present at his Open Source Convention about RSS and XML-RPC and SOAP. He wouldn’t let us use his stage. Now I do have a problem with that. He’s perfectly happy to reap the rewards, but he doesn’t want to make the investment. Same thing as the VCs. Kevin Werbach is the same. They put their paying customers in as keynoters and panelists, guys from Sun, Microsoft, Oracle, IBM, eBay, Amazon; and the innovations taht really matter just aren’t there. See, that doesn’t make sense to me. Squeezing out the new technology for commercial messages is over-the-top greed. Like I said, no problem with making money, but you have to invest alongside us to profit from our work. Whether you like me or Marc personally (and some people don’t like either of us) doesn’t matter. We both have track records that really entitle us to have access to the people who go to these conferences. That’s where they’re screwing up. […]
