HostingCon is coming soon! The event will take place June 6 to June 7 at the Hyatt Regency O’ Hare in Rosemont, Illinois. Over the past few weeks my friends and fellow workers in the Web hosting industry have asked me two questions.
“Why are you not going?”
“Are you going?”
I am not going to be able to make the festivities this year, but hopefully by the time that the 2006 HostingCon rolls around the corner I’ll be able to rub shoulders with the Web hosting elite out there. At one time I thought that the Web hosting industry was filled with nothing more than a bunch of money hungry scum bags that just wanted to make a dollar or two. Over the past few months though, I am happy to say, I was wrong.
Web hosting professionals, no mater if you are a Web host or a Web hosting writer are some of the nicest people you can know. Maybe by the time 2006 rolls around I might even be able to broadcast the Web Hosting Show live from the event? It has been talked about, but don’t get too excited yet. Right now it is still just an idea.
The WHIR just posted a good round up of what to look forward to and what to expect.
HostingCon 2005 revealed details on Monday about the four keynote addresses to be delivered at the Web hosting industry conference scheduled for June 6-7 in Chicago.
Sandip Gupta, president and CEO of Ensim Corporation, will present “The Convergence Revolution: Hosting Beyond Web Sites and Email” on June 6 at 9:00 a.m. At 2:30 p.m. on the same day, Robert Marsh, founder and CEO of EV1Servers will present “You, Too, Can Achieve Web Hosting Growth and Profitability.”

HostingCon 2005, with over 50 vendor booths and 24 conference sessions, will be held June 6-7, 2005 at the Hyatt Regency O’Hare in Rosemont, Illinois. Web host Interjuncture is producing the event
So to all my buddies that will be there, I hope you have a great time and I hope to see you about this same time next year!
