MANGOLASSI World/Con/give me a name idea please
-
I've liked MangoCon since the beginning. It rings well. However the description is difficult as people will be like "A Mango Convention?"

To be fair explaining SpiceWorld to my boss was difficult enough.
-
Yeah that is why I debate on the name cause you don't want to have a hard time explaining things to the boss. We also plan on having very high level IT training so I want it taken seriously.
-
Agreed, it needs a name that kinda screams tech.
-
NerdCon?

I've been toying with names around Decisions / Connections / Influencers but haven't found anything yet that works.

Anti-Raid 5 Alliance?
Anti-Raid 5 Congress? (ARC!) -
I could easily participate with a session on the true costs of moving to VoIP or something. I was going to offer a presentation around this for SW but I had a server meltdown at one client in March when I started to put together my presentation. I never got back to it before the cutoff.

@coliver That just sounds like a song title, lol.

I'm not convinced on the concept of "deep dive training" that can be delivered in a single hour.
More likely, you'll spend a day in the given subject, or x hours over a number of weeks.
Would you like to learn Exchange? Oh ok, we can cover a few things.
-
having something in the title that denotes SMB IT would be awesome. Or that tells people that it is about getting social with IT. But no idea how to do that without having a really cheesy name.
-
What about something simple like TechCon?
-
These will not be one hour sessions.
Idea at this point: 3-6 hours on a subject
With a few different tracks to choose from
There will be a full lab situations to play in as well -
I definitely like the SMB aspect of your idea Scott. Not sure about the social aspect - management will probably frown on that, think we are all just sitting around getting drunk, etc..
-
This will be 2 full days of real training not marketing.

Awesome that is my biggest complaint about SW. Most of the vendor session that talk about new tech are really just marketing.

That's not the point. I was going for cool sounding, not practical
