As a matter of fact, I'm presenting at it, and no, the last one didn't take
place in 2001 -- the last one took place in late 2003, which I attended.

Personally, I'm a big fan of online conferences. I think it's well worth
the fee -- it's less than a couple of teleclasses, and you get many hours of
good material. Most importantly, it's not just a vehicle for vendor
pitches, which is what you tend to get when you have a free event.

Hope to see you there!
