Real disappointed in the schedule of speakers. Shouldn't the main speaker advertised be a keynote on Friday? A better job communicating when speakers will be talking ahead of time in the future would be nice.

@John - Sorry that you're disappointed in the schedule. We try our best to get the details to people as soon as we have them finalized. If this caused you problems due to scheduling, send me an email at dusty [at] siliconprairienews.com, and I'd be happy to make it right.

Thanks,

Dusty
