It's been just two weeks since I returned from On Demand 2009, held March 30-April 2, in Philadelphia. Going into the event – after talking to exhibitors and prospective attendees – I had lowered my expectations considerably. Influenced by photos of a different (though in a related industry) event  held in early March where the aisles were empty and keynote presentations were attended by a handful, I was prepared to be underwhelmed. AIIM/On Demand exceeded my expectations, and – it turns out – the expectations of a lot of others in the house. While attendance was down, those who did come were there intending to network, research, and learn. To see some photos from the show, click on the image below and you can view a slide show.
