Nice to meet you, where did you disappear to Saturday? I never saw you again!
I don’t know.. disappeared? Me? What do you mean?
It was great meeting you and having fun with the interview. And yes, you did disappear on Saturday. You were doing interviews!
It was an amazing experience and your participation made it just that much more fun. Thanks!
So glad to have met you. This was a fantastic weekend. Glad you feel the same.
Enjoyed getting in on the recording Q&A. Lots of fun.
Thanks to everyone that attended and put on this event!!!
[...] great re-caps online about what took place at SOBCon from a content perspective, lessons learned, visuals and a even musical spins, but not a whole lot on the sponsors of the event which definitely help [...]
It was great to meet you at SOBCon08 — and true international experience to converse with you. After all, how often will you walk into a Chicago pub to find an Irishman speaking Danish to an American speaking Norwegian?
Let’s do it again sometime!
Heya Paul, Thanks for making the trek to Chicago to spend some time with us. (Oh, and sorry about that calling you Kevin thing on camera. Dang sleep deprivation!)
@Chris It was a pleasure to meet both you and your charming wife
BTW, I don’t mind being called “Kevin”, I’ve been called a hell of a lot worse in my time
Although I would appreciate it if you didn’t make a habit of it
I envy the whole lot of you. Wish I could have been there.
@DRT You’ll have to come to the next one. You’ve been commenting here for so long it would be a shame not to get to meet you
I had SO MUCH fun! Get your blog on!
See you next year, if not before…now I have a reason to come to France!
