I agree Don there is something really unique about having that many people who are problem solvers in one place to collaborate, it has lead to some really interesting questions and ideas. After running a session or while working at a booth I almost always get some good follow up questions that is thought provoking or learn about a way someone is using Quick Base that is surprising. I've been to the last three Empowers and I've always found those conversations very engaging. Last year helping with the judging for the Appathon was very unique and cool, and I left with a few ideas I've tinkered with in my own project apps as a result.
It is a challenge to try to rethink some of that awesome connection in a virtual space but it is something we are really trying to tackle. Ways of doing virtual meet ups outside of just the sessions and focused discussions threads so that even if you can't ask questions in person you also aren't just watching a streamed session and left wondering at the end.
