We hope you enjoyed Networkshop 40 and would love to hear your feedback. If you would like to share your experience of the event, please post to this group.
I'm certainly interested in the outcome of the bag debate. Personally I'd prefer a higher quality bag or no bag, so perhaps one every other year which doesn't make reference to the date?
Also, with the success of the mobile app, perhaps we should just have the fold out programme and don't have a printed guide next year? Especially if the information is online and perhaps as a PDF on a USB stick give away; again a reasonable capacity or it becomes landfill?
Just some environmental thoughts, what to do with a surplus of small capacity vendor USB sticks?

With regard to the bag debate, the majority of delegates expressed a wish to keep the bags. There was, however, a tie in the number of delegates wanting rucksack or messenger bag. Perhaps like you say we alternate them - it's something we need to thing about - any further suggestions welcome.
With regard to Networkshop Mobile. This went down well with delegates and from the feedback we received 39.7% of respondents said they used this facility. By far the quick reference guide was the most popular with 93.7% of respondents saying they used it. Perhaps next year when delegates are more famililar with Network Mobile there will be a greater swing towards digital information/updates - any thoughts on this would be welcome?
Linked with this, our feedback showed (not suprisingly) a rise in the number of delegates using mobile devices this year – 66% of these were iphones or android, 13.2% were iPads and 20.8% consisted of ‘other’ which included blackberries, laptops, windows mobile.
I'd certainly prefer to continue to use the standard web based feedback link, as supplied this year. Much easier to provide feedback on the computer after the conference.

Whilst we are on the topic of Feedback.
It would be interesting to hear your thoughts on whether you would prefer a paper, an online or a mobile app type of feedback form.
Also, what will make you fill in a feedback form, what will put you off?
Please let us know your thoughts. We really value all you have to say.

Would it be easier if you could fill in your feedback as you are going?
