Thanks for anyone caring to vote for us. It's been an insane amount of work, but I really think we're can help "fix" professional events online. Feel free to ask any questions about Conferize.

This is such a great idea. Kudos @ferrogate! The bit about finding conferences to potentially speak at is huge

@AnujAdhiya Thanks a bunch Anuj! And I agree :)

@ferrogate May I contact you about a very specific question that's off topic with what's happening on PH?

@AnujAdhiya Sure thing, email at Martin @ (our domain)

I was just about to hunt this as well. @FerroGate (formerly co-founder of Issuu), have done a great job on this. They just launched their first major redesign today. I find it is useful for both finding conferences to attend, speak at, as well as follow live.

@kjemperud Thanks Thomas, you are too kind :)

This is great! For the longest time I've wanted to follow event organizers on Eventbrite, but unfortunately that feature isn't available.

@inaherlihy Thanks, Ina! Conferize makes it possible to follow pretty much anyone in the events space - over 4 millions people and counting. And about 15,000 events too :)

@inaherlihy I'm following my twitter connections, a lot of great speakers, from designers and devs to marketers and founders. The content I get is really awesome, reminds me of an early not-so-crowded slideshare
Scott Feinberg
Pretty cool! Neat how it automatically pulled in events that I follow on twitter.

@scottefein Glad you like it! We're working with this idea of "plug n play" community where we try to make joining as smooth and engaging as possible.

I used its original interface to track events in 2012-2013 but this new experience is refreshing. Conferize and Lanyrd are two such services I always follow. Great work!

@vingar Thanks Vinish! So happy you've been with us for a while and also recognise the progress :)

@craigzingerline You beat me to it - thanks! Just catching up with all the comments here. So exciting :)

In corporate communications I used to hunt down conferences all the time for our thought leaders to speak at- a one stop shop for industry conferences would have been super useful!

@eileenmcarey I know the feeling! Getting an overview of conferences shouldn't be a person's job - it's a job for a machine! We're looking for ways to add many more events and I'm happy to say we have a more than decent growth in the number of events being submitted organically :)
David Spinks
Looks cool. How do you list a conference on there?

@DavidSpinks Very simple: If you are the organizer, just click Add events and follow instructions. Takes a few minutes. If you're just a fan of a particular event, just tip us about it and we'll take care of the rest and notify you! http://www.conferize.com/quick_s...
