Warum eigentlich nicht? Weil unsereiner nicht jedes Wochenende in die USA fliegen kann, bleiben manche Messen und Kongresse unerreichbar. Letztere haben bisweilen noch Streams und Conferencecasts, erstere jetzt einen virtuellen auftritt.
Podcasting News berichtet:
1st Podcast Publishing has announced a virtual podcast expo, the International Podcasting Expo, to be held April 21 – 23, 2006. The online expo will be a 48 hour, around-the-clock event, taking place within an online Virtual Expo Center.
