Base Camp 2008 !!!!!
-
I remember during the last Base Camp hiding myself in a cupboard and sobbed for days because i was on the other side of the world and didn't have enough Frequent Flyer point to go..... If only ducati monster could float, Craig, I would fill the tank and start sailing!!!!
Hope those fortunate few report back as Ross M [i think] and others did following the last one....Cheers

I'm sure we can count on some reports back from all the attendees that frequent this place. You know they will want to 'rub it in'
Regards, Ross

I really hope that the good folks organizing this event will make a strong effort to allow virtual participation in the conference. We've started to do this fairly successfully at a conference held every year for NY independent school IT directors... with a small fraction of Google's resources. This past November we were able to audio or video record many of the sessions and make them available quickly (in some cases concurrently via streaming) over the Internet. What about doing something like TED, where all the presentations are recorded and made available for download? I think there are just loads of possibilities to use Web 2.0 tools and the Internet to make this a much richer experience for the entire SketchUp community.

Well, I just got my "Unfortunately you were not selected to attend" rejection notice. polite, but to the point.
Dangit
oh well that does it. I'm switchin' to max.
-
I got the same "unfortuantely...." notice as well. Did anyone get a congratulations notice?
-
I was one of the lucky ones !
I was invited & they give you until May 6 to respond. -
Well congrats, I was really hoping I'd get an invite but I got the rejection letter yesterday as well
. Oh well, there's always the chance that I'll be chosen in the second round after the chosen few that can't go are weeded out.@bstan5106 said:

...As to the request for live band suggestions:
They Might Be Giants
U2 (Had to try. The Power of Google and all)
Radiohead
Bjork
Pixies
Toad the Wet Sprocket -
REJECTED!!! Oh Well.
-
Just shy of a month away and I still have not received a yes or no. Disappointing to say the least.
Waaay too late to make travel plans. -
So its a "no" by deault. Doesn't surprise me seeing how we're kept up to date with SU development and release dates.
-
I was accepted.
I am looking forward to the event.
-
When exactly were you accepted? (Some people are confused because they have never received either a yes or no).
-
It has been a bit of a mess has it not, you would think that an organization the size of Google would be able to get something like this right.
-
I was accepted on Friday - May 9th.

John Bacus told me he was working on that, Fred. They do read these posts, it seems.

Good to know, so if higher poly support is not addressed we can then assume they ignore their base?
-
Solo, are YOU going? If you're not, why don't you just email Aidan and scold him, given your abiding unhappiness with their product?
-
I am far from unhappy with the product, SU is my number one used software and now with the addition of the new tools to make and manipulate 'curvy things' SU is now even better. I have issue with the future of the product.
I declined my invite yesterday for a few reasons, main reason being I need a new rig for rendering and the funds would be best served in purchasing that.
EDIT:
My situation has changed for the best and I will indeed be attending as a speaker, who knows I may even have some exciting Podium 2 news. -
Did people with no email communication check their Junk/Spam mail folder?
