what's the problem with it? Dan wouldn't have to fly anywhere. Everyone can be in the comfort of their home and I m pretty sure you could get 3-5 times more people than in a seminar in a specific city....

I never said it would... I am just saying it would definitely get a larger audience, get organized pretty easily, and there would be no seat reservation/room searching/booking/advance payment/post reimbursement with amex cards and any other hassle of the sort... Set a time, a link, whoever is available joins from wherever (Israel, US, etc.) and open a Q&A at the end...
Dan will even be able to switch between him talking, showing off slides, browsing a website and showing off some cool booking/5BM/deal catching tricks ;)

How would the Q's work?  Everyone screaming all at once? 

And...

Online means no audience questions and no secrets being spilled.
If an org wants to bring me out to speak they know where to find me.

  • Location: The value of a forum such as this one is not in that one can post a question and receive an answer, but in that the question has most likely been asked before, and the answer is available to him that will but only use the search function.
  • Programs: 1. Search on google. 2. Search in the right board of DDF with a general word or two. 3. Read the wiki. 4. Read the thread. 5. Ask away.

Yep exactly. Lol
No, depending on the platform, the participants can for example click on a "raise your hand" button and the hosts then decides who can talk by giving him access to the mic or he can do it via chat/lists/etc...
You can also restrict access to an event, send invites with a private link etc...

When you're giving seminars you can do so on your terms, Dan has stated his preference on the subject and all of your suggestions aren't going to change his mind.

I never kept on suggesting the webinar. I said it once and then I answered YOUR questions. Stop asking them, I'll stop answering.

Does your local institution have space for at least 100 people and a projector and want to host a DD seminar on miles?
I'd be happy to ask attendees to make a small donation to the host.

I would like to have Dan back in NY for a Dans Deals Seminar any one like the idea please post a reply.
Dan would you come out to NY for another seminar?
