The Salt Palace had an expansion recently. I can't tell where the new space was added, but it has been under construction for some time now. I think the new space is why they're able to offer a LearningLab again this year. I hope they fixed one of my bigger pet-peeves about BrainShare, the bad chairs.
Specifically, any session outside of the Ballrooms have the bad chairs. These chairs are standard convention chairs. Stackable. You can deploy lots of them. They store easy. They have a square back-rest, and the top comes to about mid-back on me. You can find an example here.Unfortunately, as they age, the back-rest panel flexes in and the top bar presses into my spine. This makes long sessions an agony 7 times out of 10 thanks to the chairs.
The ones in the ballrooms are different. They're the elongated oval style. Another example.
Monday: 3 ballroom, 1 bad-chair
Tuesday: 2 ballroom, 3 bad-chair (ow)
Wednesday: 2 bad-chair, including both 2-hour sessions. OwOwOw.
Thursday: 2 ballroom, 3 bad-chair (ow)
Friday: 1 ballroom, 1 bad-chair
Maybe I should bring my own custom seat-back. That's a really good idea.
