Aral Balkan - What a 4-track virtual conference really looks like!

What a 4-track virtual conference really looks like!

Here's a sneak peek into how our techadmin team saw the <head> web conference. Our nifty 4-up view helped us keep an eye on things and step in to help at the first sign of trouble.

I have to say that there's something supremely cool about watching four presentations at the same time. And, with practice, it's almost possible to zone in and follow just one.

Multiply the above by seven timeslots and you'll get an idea of what just the second day looked like (the other two days were three-track!)

(And yes, that's four Adobe Connect instances running in a single browser window. woot!)

Hi Aral,

I really had a wonderful time! What an amazing conference!
I couldn’t believe how much fun this conference was, if I hadn’t attended myself.

Really looking forward to the next edition already.
(Somebody commented on my blog about it, and suggested a 4-heads-a-year plan

I hope you enjoyed the experience as much as we did!
Great job guys!
Respect!

Strange, I couldn’t take my mind off that handsome man in the bottom left quadrant. How could you focus on the rest!

Hi Aral,

Just wanted to check out the conference videos recently, and got an Adobe connect account expiration. Are you planning to keep this site open?

Thx,

David
