#winterlude3 relection over winter to include BETT, Online Information and LEarning Technologies
The "winterlude" is a sort of break over winter that happens to coincide with trade shows. I started a cloudscape in 2009http://cloudworks.ac.uk/cloudscape/view/1953 Mainly it includes Online Information, BETT and Learning Technologieshttp://www.bettshow.comhttp://www.online-information.co.uk/ http://www.learningtechnologies.co.ukThis year the Winterlude will also include Cross Media Live although this will not happen as a show till September 2012. It is proposed by the organisers of IPEX, a major print show. My guess is that cross media is sooner than some may think. http://www.crossmedialive.com/Also in 2012 there will be drupa with an innovation parchttp://www.drupa.com/cipp/md_drupa/custom/pub/content,oid,18861/lang,2/ticket,g_u_e_s_t/~/Special_Shows.html Some of the technology could be at the XML part of Online Information.My take on XML is not that techy, i see it as a way to cope with text. So expect more simple guesses and then actual reporting from the show floor.
