I am having a great time at DLD, but can someone please tell conference organizers around the world to put an end to Schwag bags? It is ironic that at a time when almost every conference has at least some track or session on sustainability, organizers still wind up creating and distributing thousands of bags filled with stuff which goes close to 100 percent into the garbage bin. DLD, for instance, included a glossy book with speaker pictures and bios. Huh? I thought it was the *Digital* Lifestyle Day. So let’s all boycott Schwag bags by not taking them or returning them if they are already in hotel rooms. Now back to enjoying the otherwise great conference!
