I participate recently a very nice conference on Green-IT. The conference was a success: lot’s of speakers, full fall, people taking notes, lot’s of questions asked.

Only one issue: despite the fact the conference targeted clients, they were nowhere to be found.

I saw a lot of people I know, account managers, sales managers even some country managers, but NO users.

Probably this is the supreme sign of hype: a conference full of vendors but no clients.
