Europe has almost come to a complete stop. A simple volcanic eruption, 1000’s of miles away is darkening our skies and our planes are grounded. Trains are overloaded and international travel is as hard as it was 100 years ago. This simple cloud of dust is a wake-up call to everyone!!!
Today, more of us rely on Videoconferencing, on-line training and other means to get “information”, and this trend is on the increase. Not just because of volcanoes, economic issues or other “external” factors, but the world as we knew it and the emerging next generations are changing. You only have to look at how many of our youth communicate with one another – texts, internet, mobile. It’s all getting increasingly virtual as the years go by.
CA has anticipated this (not the disruption from the Icelandic volcano) with the second version of May Mainframe Madness. No more one-way-traffic webcasts, no dull PowerPoint presentations, but a real virtual tradeshow environment where you can walk around, talk to peers, select the sessions you are interested in.
But also the latest (hot) news brought to you “live” during CA-World in Las Vegas. And thanks to the wonders of Virtualization, you can meet with and contact peers more easily than ever before CA’s May Mainframe Madness Virtual Tradeshow will bring you the same experience, and more that today’s youth enjoy as part of their ongoing interaction with others and the information around themRegister today at http://www.ca.com/mmm.
You will not be disappointed while you are sitting in your comfortable environment watching the beautiful skies (if you live in Europe) generated by volcanic dust… I hope to meet you in the Virtual Pavilion. How you can find me? I’ll be wearing a Dutch Flag.
