I actually think the sessions are more geared towards the novice. I learned a ton at my first conference... But since then, the sessions, while valuable, are more reminders and a new idea or two rather than fresh information. And networking has at least as much value to small affiliates.

Every conference I've been to has been totally worth it... Had it not been for other travel plans (and personal things), I would be at this conference.
