Mark your calendars. A second virtual conference for idate and Social Networking Conference is happening from 8:00 AM EST to 8:00 PM EST on Thursday January 24. The virtual conference willl allow delegates to see the exhibitiors, learn what they do, talk with them in advance (text, audio or video), and schedule appointments. While the event runs a long time, the most action occurs from 12-3pm EST. The last one gave me a serious bout of carpal tunnel syndrome, a good thing in this case, because the show was extremely useful.
Good news, I am able to log back into the virtual conference. I recommend setting up your profile in advance and get used to the system before the event.
I’ll have my usual page up, feel free to drop by my profile, ping me or leave a comment and I’ll see you in the chat room. Be sure to check out Teltech, a client who will be exhibiting their LoveDetect services at the show.
In other virtual networking news, Unisfair just raised $10Mraised $10M for Virtual Trade Shows from Sequoia Capital and Norwest Venture Partners. While much slicker than the Pringo offering that powers iDate, I’m not sold on the 3D interface yet.
