Got home today, and I’m just too tired to write anything even semi-salient right now, but Tim managed to do that, and I think he got even less sleep than I did.
It was great seeing so many amazing friends, and meeting some great new people. Quite a whirlwind.
And thanks to Morriss for snapping this pic of my presentation (with his iPhone no less)!
I’m off to Minneapolis tomorrow for CUES Experience.
I’m excited to see so many of my CU alum there, including Morriss Partee, Tim McAlpine, Robbie Wright, Denise Wymore, Brent Dixon, and am most excited to finally meet Ron Shevlin, Steve Williams and Christopher Stevenson in person after months of being eConnected. I hope I didn’t miss anyone – did I?
I’m presenting a Credit Union case study from Vancity, covering who we are, how we show up and how we leverage social media. Should be a good presentation.
It’s also been a fantastic way to procrastinate finishing my chapter for the new Age of Conversation. Truth be told, I’m starting to panic, it’s due in 3 days.
If you’ll be in Minneapolis, please say hi.
Now I gotta figure out how to transport fresh fruit across the US-Canada border, because my son Ivan is expecting tiny apples from a place called Minneapolis (say it aloud).
I’m excited to participate in the upcoming Cossette Convergance 2008 here in Vancouver at the Arts Club Theatre.
I’ve been asked to speak on a panel entitled Giving Your Brand Away: Brand Communities, and will be a panelist alongside Ben Stringfellow from McDonalds USA, Thierry Hay-Sabourin from Future Shop and William Bakker from Tourism British Columbia. The panel will be moderated by Angele Beausoleil from Fjord, Cossette’s online agency.
I’m honoured to be among these amazing people, and it should turn out to be a great event.
I’m very keen to hear from the keynote speaker Grant McCracken the author of Culture and Consumption.
If you’ll be there, please let me know. And if you’re thinking of attending, you can register here.
