Well how about we run it virtually then? Less cost, no travel issues, still heaps of collaboration opportunities?

A tough year for conference organisers indeed and a pity about Web 2.0 cancelling their Europe event. Companies cuttting back their travel expenses and sponsors lowering sponsors budgets are the main reasons IMO. Nevertheless, I believe there is a need for the European tech oriented conferences to keep going.

Nicole listed already some of the most important in web. You may add to the list Mobile 2.0 Europe – http://mobile20.eu on June 17-18-19 in Barcelona, covering innovation in mobile in its convergent area’s.

Hope to see you there!

A pity to see Web2.0 go. The other conferences you mention don’t seem to have that problem (at least I can be sure for one in particular).
It could be that ‘the American approach’ for organizing an event just didn’t work out that well. For European companies it is always very difficult to succeed in the US, this shows that it is hard for Americans to cross the ocean as well.

YEAH… I hate Europeans cause they basically suck but think they’re so cool when it comes to tech. Now web 2.0 is finally dead and the eurotrash can finally wakeup and realize xmlhttprequest is not real technology.

they should’ve never tried. retards.

Hate to say it, but their web 2.0 conference franchise is now long in the tooth. Won’t attend this year (and have no regrets). The world is about more focused conferences now that can add real value, not a meetup to hear the same Mark Z talk over and over.

Finally, Web 2.0 is being abandoned in favor of Web 3.7 RC6. These new versions have been coming out for years, and it’s baffled me as to why there hasn’t been a massive push to upgrade till now.

Not wanting to bash O’Reilly + TechWeb, but people are starting to giggle behind their backs that their main uber conferences are called “web2.0 “.

Web2.0 is over, and in Euroland in particular where the recession has really hit, it’s time to change course and provide conferences that meet the demands of the market.

Doing more with less, innovation in hard times, etc etc. It’s not “web2.0″, it’s something else.

I think O’Reilly + TechWeb will get away with it again this year here in slightly more frothy San Francisco. But even then it might be time to bring it bed and move on.
