[Trainer-Talk] CSUN questions

[J.J. Meddaugh]

Also, I've created a Lanyrd event page for #CSUNATC17. It's a cool tool 
if you haven't used it to connect.

You can go hear to indicate you are attending and also post info on any 
sessions you are speaking at.

Especially with it being in an unfamiliar convention center, I want to be sure I learn the most about technology that's truly recommendable. I also want to be sure I attend the sessions that are more informational and less a recitation of the vendor's sales literature.

I want to steer clear of all that "spam" and focus on what's new that I can recommend with a good conscience!

And I have questions about the social aspects: whose suites are worth visiting and who I should try to track down to have a quiet meal with, etc.
