I have no events planned.
Yes! And I have met many head geeks in person before and it's always good to see friends and colleagues. Most recently it was SWUG in Phoenix which was great and informative time BTW. Also got to meet you @kpina! That was one of the best SWUG's. It was great mix of old and new friends. The amount of information and questions answered is hard to do just here on thwack... it's a different thing all together! I have a new vision and understanding of HCO I didn't have at all before SWUG. Seeing it at Cisco Live or a trade show is one thing but SWUG is totally next level stuff friends... take it from someone that's been around a while... it's way more than worth taking the time.

To tell you the truth when it comes to my vote it doesn't just depend on where, it would also depend on the subject matter...
Selfies with celebrities - always!
I have met many head geeks. I have been around for a long time with SolarWinds. I have been to many SWUG, in person to Thwack Camp, and other various things. I never see Patrick, or Leon, and some of the others, but I still know a few.
The opportunity to interact with other, like-minded 'Observability' and Security diligent individuals is a 'WIN-WIN!" in my humble opinion. Each conversation which in an open room, decidedly brings new perspective and views which must be considered from every business to introduce cooperation and collaboration. I would definitely be up for a Meet-Up in person with folks at a TN venue! Much easier to travel for three days to an instate venue.Echo @ecklerwr1, a meet and greet with digital, virtual, and even physical friends helps get the creativity and cooperative efforts underway! SWUG in my area would be a great opportunity.
I met a few back at a Boston SWUG and really enjoyed getting to know them. It adds personality and relationship to SolarWinds.
Cisco Live!
London SWUG is always good. Great to meet the nutters that make up the team. Food is always good too.
No events officially planned just yet.
London SWUG is great! Can't wait to meet friends & other geeks & the Head Geeks again.
JUST YES!!! YES!!
YES
No planned events for this year (yet).
If there is an event in Portland or Seattle, I would be interested since I often find solutions in the informal conversations after presentations.
Love to see you guys do something in Charlotte or Atlanta.
Have you ever done a SWUG Atlanta or a something around North Carolina?
Look out for a SWUG update very soon
What if they come to me! :-)
I was able to attend a swug several years ago. It was great to meet the geeks and have questions answered directly.
I was pleased to meet some of them in Boston. Their presence isn't necessary for a successful event, but meeting the people you interact with electronically improves the interaction and relationship.
I would like the opportunity to really get to know them. It adds to the relationship with SolarWinds.
