Attending a festival or conference is a great opportunity, and, with most attendees equipped with their smartphones, tablets or the latest breed of hand-held devices, the phablets, there are apps available that can make maneuvering the social scene relatively simple.  (If you’ve ever received a business card but couldn’t match the name on the card to a face or encounter, we’re talking to you.)
