For one thing, since attendance is low and there is a chance my message (as a vendor's marketing manager) could get altered or at least diluted through someone else, it would behoove these conferences to offer an online presence through Xuropa so those attendees attending online can get the first-hand unaltered messages direct from the vendors. Nothing replaces face-to-face .... if face-to-face is not going to happen (i.e. have you seen how low the attendance in these conferences has been?!!) an online presence (and by that that I don't' mean a conference website, I mean a web2.0 presence where everyone's engaged rather than broadcasted to) is a very close substitute.
