Is Ad:Tech Sucking?

It seems to me that the coverage of Ad:Tech has been pretty light. No one talking about anything that interesting or mind-blowing. That's got me a little worried. I can only assume that no one is talking about anything interesting or mind-blowing because there's nothing of the sort there.

However, B.L. Ochman points out the following on her site:

"The action at this conference is definitely in the hallways and on the hyper-kinetic and mind-bogglingly crowded and loud exhibit floor... many sessions have been sparsely attended, despite good content."

Sounds to me like Ad:Tech needs a kick in the pants.
