Excellent point... build first... monetize second. :) The lure of all un-conferences is the lack of those pesky powerpoint slides which tend to follow all opportunities to monetize. As long as you keep a tight leash on the companies who are presenting, everything will be oooook. I promise! ;) P.S. two days is nothin! "You can do it." (If your inaugural event was any indication.) Great conference. See you next year. @ Noah:

Thank you for the feedback. It was tough to make everyone happy. I know a lot of entrepreneurs/creators are more interested in crowing and making their community kick ass before making money off them. However, a few VC friends said you better focus on monetizing and nothing else. I am going to be in LA in a few weeks, we should get together! Cheers, Noah PS> 2 days is a long time=) Marc,

We tried to sum up 3 years in 25 minutes, so we got right to the heart of what really mattered to us and what we think would matter to anyone doing something similar. It was to a packed house and the reviews were quite favorable. [...] […] We were asked us to convey the Dogster, Inc. story.
