The Circus comes to Town: An exhibitor's view of the 8th International Online Information Meeting
Abstract
Roll up, roll up … the International Online Meeting gets more like a circus every year. This year the ringmaster and some of the performers were seen covered from head to foot in stars and rosettes, making it very difficult to catch a glimpse of the most important part of the meeting — the lapel badges. You have to make sure who has changed companies, sex or name. Those expecting a new big top this year may have been disappointed to find the Novotel just a re‐vamped Cunard. However, we were promised a new improved service, no more ‘ships' museum’, no more escalator, and prime stand space upstairs. But wait, how do I get my trolley full of equipment up to this prime space? Yes, by escalator! It appeared that the easiest way to get your stand installed was by spaceship (or it may just have been the new Pergamon stand).
