I completely agree that virtual participation does not replace in-person attendance, but hybrid events can be a great alternative due to schedules, costs, other priorities, etc. They also come with their own unique vantage points on engagement, networking, etc. Thanks also for the mention, Thom.JaySDaughtryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12688619114966923117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11195787.post-12785895932734756772013-01-14T17:09:16.354-06:002013-01-14T17:09:16.354-06:00>> I was online for the same conference.
