It is great that the keynotes are being live streamed. I haven't been able to attend conferences in the last few years. The last one I attended was the <a href="http://www.open-ils.org">Evergreen</a> 2010 Conference, and that was because it was local. So, I'm always happy when I get the opportunity to keep up with the industry with out having to spend money. Of course, not attending means I do miss out on the networking and being able to talk to people about "life at [various employers]", etc.
