Apparently this has been cancelled by the organisers, not enough interest it seems.... Interesting piece in the Guardian from Monday 18th Dec about it titled 'Excess space at conference suggests networking bubble may have burst':

I don't think the bubble has burst but I do think that people are looking for the next thing. Just talking about Web 2.0 and the same old same old probably won't attract people anymore. i also think less is more when it comes to conferences. Less speakers and more time for Q&A. Conferences need to be more like "live" blogs with speakers psoting their thoughts and the audience responding with comments in the from of questions.

Goodness Sam, have you been inbibing of the goodness of some such events recently? I really can't imagine such an event occuring in ol' London town. It sounds quite astonishing

Actually - I wanted to go but it was overpriced.

That's a good point Elinesca - the kind of innovators who would be investigating and / or evangelising this kind of stuff inside their (large, mid-sized or small) organsations are still mostly not the head honchos and high-rolling execs who can afford to go to such a high-priced event as this; hence the sluggish sales. In turn, plenty of small events are tackling these issues. Still, it would have been great to hear from Craigslist up there among the old media titans!
