Built into the site is a reputation management system to be used by conference attendees, speakers, organizers and administrators allowing people to plan for and attend conferences, and critique and review those they have attended and want to share with colleagues. No other resource contains such a comprehensive listing of events or as robust a tool set for maximizing the conference experience via the live Web.

Why should I claim my conferences?
Confabb offers you a wide range of tools to publicize your conference within the Confabb Community. Claiming your conference allows you control over how your conference is presented within Confabb. You can add tags to help members find your conference and give them a better idea what they can expect. You can also add your conference logo as well as other information to publicize your conference.
Confabb Community members can only find you if you claim your conferences so if you don't claim, you can't join the conversation.
What does Confabb offer that my own web site can't?
Confabb offers a wide range of social media tools including tags, links to blogs and photographs on Flickr and elsewhere on the Web. With Confabb, your conference attendees get the complete picture, not only what goes on in the halls and meeting rooms but what was said and what's being discussed on the Web.
Confabb broadens the conference experience for your attendees, bring the tools of social media to your events.
Will Confabb take traffic away from my own web site?
By claiming your conference, you can link the listing back to your web site and get more qualified traffic and leads for your conference.
