VON (Voice on the Net) Europe is coming to a wrap. I gave a presentation on Tuesday on VoIP Security auditing and today (Wednesday) on Security Compliance management. My presentations went over fairly well but it was really hard reading the audience. I did manage to get one chuckle out of each audience, but I’m more used to getting 3-4! I was actually worried that they didn’t like the panels presentations until the moderator (who is European) explained that Europeans aren’t as involved of an audience as Americans. I saw the same thing in Japan. No one will ask questions at the end of a presentation. Instead they wait until you are leaving to approach you and ask questions. Thursday is the last day of the conference. I think I will propose similar topics for VON Fall in Boston.
I’m still trying to enjoy Stockholm. I’ve never really been a fan of European countries. I don’t really know why. France was the first European country I’ve visited and it didn’t live up to my expectations, so I think that soured me a bit. While Japan was the first Asian country I visited and it really blew me away. I’m going to try and make a run over to Finland on my way back. That is supposed to be a bit more exciting.
