89 | IBM should give Mr. Ben Langhinrichs full programmatic READ access to the Lotusphere schedule |
85 | IBM should make Lotusphere information broadly availableDavid Bailey1391 - 29 2008 / (9) IBM and Business Partners invest heavily in Lotusphere. In order to maximize return and value to the Lotus community, IBM should make a small investment to make sure the material is broadly available. IBM should pay Ben Langhinrichs to attach presentation materials to his sessions database so they could be ... |
73 | Title session PDFs using the actual title instead of 'BP101.pdf'Jess Stratton1340 - 16 2008 / (3) When Lotusphere makes the conference presentations available to us to download, we can download each track as an individual zip file. The problem is that all the presentations are titled things like "BP101.pdf", "BP102.pdf", etc. If I want to look up a session from previous years past, I have to ... |
71 | ALL speakers need to provide presentation slides |
65 | Leave coffee out for longer than 15 minutes |
60 | Bring back the Lotusphere CLP DiscountRandy Smith3883 - 15 2007 / (8) Special conference pricing for CLPs was offered to Lotusphere attendees for several years and then taken away last year. I think this really hurt IBM/Lotus' relationship with the certified community more than if they never offered it in the first place. Why not just offer us a token $100 discount ... |
39 | Show additional Times for Sessions that are scheduled more than once.In the pocket agenda and flipbook agenda, I would like to see all alternative times/days listed on each session. This would make scheduling easier than flipping through 2 different books to find out when that session is being presented again. IBM did this at the Blade Center X-Series Conference, and it ... |
37 | Blogger's LoungeKeith Brooks6783 - 05 2008 / (4) We want to see a Blogger's Lounge, as many other large shows have now. Perhaps part of the press area, but it's a place for us, and for others to come, meet, learn(we can schedule mini sessions) train, do interviews and of coursse blog. Sponsorship is possible, and ancillary items ... |
37 | IBM to Review Last Year's Lotusphere IdeaSpace Suggestions |
33 | Bring your power strip!Richard Schwartz3597 - 29 2007 / (6) Let's face it... there's aren't enough AC power outlets in session rooms, and there never will be. If you're carrying your laptop with you in your yellow backpack, and if you're carrying the power brick, too, then the weight of a cheap little 6 outlet power strip isn't a lot ... |
31 | IBM Should Change the Slide Templates |
30 | Cross-index the Product Showcase Catalog |
28 | Pose questions/ideas to speakers before and after sessionsBen Langhinrichs6939 - 08 2008 / (3) In Version 2 of the Lotusphere 2008 Sessions DB (now available to replicate or download), I have added a new collaborative feature that allows attendees, or potential attendees, to ask questions before, during and after sessions. Rather than just having each speaker guess at what the audience is ... |
16 | Increase number of votes for BOF SessionsRandy Smith3883 - 13 2007 / (2) The Lotusphere 2008 session preference survey came out, which allows an attendee to vote for only 5 BOF sessions. With the "Communities of Interest" BOFs stuck on the bottom of a list of probably more than 100 BOF submissions, it doesn't look too good for the one I submitted (related ... |
16 | Provide suggested session pathsProvide sheets with suggested session paths to take for those who are aimed at one particular product or goal.
Ex: Certification, Quickr, Sametime, Administration, Development, Archiving, etc.
|
14 | Provide unconference space and let us run itDan Sickles1710 - 09 2008 / (2) A few folks have suggested space for unconference sessions. Let them organize the unconference on the fly. IBM would just provide the space....and coffee. |
13 | Digital Bulletin Board for Positons/ContractsKeith Brooks6783 - 07 2007 / (7) Not just from BPs and individuals but companies as well. If you need us, what better place to find us and interview us and solve your problems.
Partnerworld, can you do this or will this be part of the online Lotusphere registrants zone? |
12 | How about letting us park at the Swan/Dolphin for free?Keith Brooks6783 - 01 2007 / (15) You know we already got a big bump in price this year, couldn't you include parking passes for attendees at least? Not all of us can stay at the Swan or Dolphin. |
12 | Create and Impress with a true Social Network usage of the productsJamie Colpean920 - 23 2008 / (0) Expand the IBM Social Network Something I find interesting is the lack of social / business connectedness at this event. Yes there are a number of well known names and personalities. There are those who have put themselves out there to be known. However, there are thousands here that are ... |
12 | Accept Submission for non-Lotuspehere PresentationsPeter Presnell26400 - 18 2009 / (1) It seems like the competition to get a speaker spot at Lotusphere goes up each year. As a devoted non-Lotuspehere attendee for the past 16 years I find that gaining access to the Presentations acts as a useful substitute. Not as good as being there but I learn heaps. My ... |
