<p>You might not know Eric Norlin but I&#8217;ve been following him for a long time. He&#8217;s one of the folks who started the Digital ID World conference and is now senior editor there. Now he&#8217;s starting a new Internet-focused conference called &#8220;Defrag.&#8221; I caught him in one of the back rooms at the Digital ID World and <a href="http://www.podtech.net/scobleshow/technology/1647/eric-norlin-defragged">we have a fun 42 minute conversation about all sorts of things</a>.</p>
<p>If you are thinking of planning a conference you won&#8217;t want to miss this one. We cover the economics of putting on conferences. We also talk about a ton of stuff.</p>
<p>This is a continuation of &#8220;smart people week&#8221; on ScobleShow. Heh, it&#8217;s actually always smart people week, but it&#8217;s fun just to do a conversation like this with a smart guy who runs major industry conferences. Hope you enjoy.</p>
