Dave Gillmor hoping to "wireless blog" at Demo
San Jose Mercury News columnist Dave Gillmor, one of the country's premier computer columnists who also writes a great Weblog (redesigned a couple of days ago), is going to the Demo conference in Phoenix this week. Gillmor writes today that there will be a wireless network (WiFi, I assume) at Demo and he expects to update his Weblog.
In the not-too-distant-future, I believe attendees at conferences -- certainly at high-tech events -- will demand WiFi access in the meeting rooms and exhibit halls. I think attendees will consider conferences that don't have at least some areas with 802.11 coverage as being rather primitive. Personally, I think that is the right attitude!
As I have previously written (blogged), the Cellular Telecommunications & Internet Association will have at least some WiFi coverage during its big Wireless 2002 annual conference and exposition at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando in March.
