   It sucks that they're basically doing the same thing, but you could take that as validation of your concept - there's clearly a market at upscale conferences for innovative community-building badges.

   I don't know how far you want to take the Fireflies, but there's a bunch of big spring conferences coming up and now's probably the time to get your foot in the door.

   Many of these places have attendances above 20,000, and charge up to $1000 for registration, so they've got the budget to drop $20 on an intelligent badge.

That's pretty well exactly like the firefly Michael Grant, Mark Stephenson and I made except our version was slightly more artzy and we had nicer visualizations. 

Here's my project page for it...
