I am not a 100% sure why scholars tend to list their conferences on their own webpage. Maybe this is for those situations when you encounter a familiar face at a conference and don't give away you don't really remember when last meeting this person, and then sneakingly ask for another of their business cards - because you "misplaced" the last one - at least such a page below might rack your brain so you find out where you actually met this person - seems far-fetched to me, though.

Otherwise, it's just ammunition for predatory journals to lure you into publishing with them: "Dear [name], we've saw your lecture X at conference Y and very much would like you to ..."

I guess, we have to wait on time travel technology to make this fully tactically relevant.
