Welcome to the Friday’s Food for Thought post from got geoint? The time has officially come. This is our last FFFT post before the official kick off of GEOINT 2011. Our bags are packed and we are ready to jump on a jet plane bound for San Antonio. Speaking of GEOINT 2011, have you all checked out the official GEOINT 2011 mobile app developed by Raytheon? It is absolutely awesome and, of course, features a news feed from the got geoint? blog, as well as the full agenda, floor plan, list of exhibitors, general convention center information and much more. In addition, we wanted to have this week’s FFFT post focus on all the key things you need to know about the symposium this year. Hope you have a great weekend and see you all in San Antonio.
