One Word: WOW!!!!
SOBCon07 (Successful and Outstanding Blogger Conference) is off and running in Chicago. We're only a few hours into it, and already I have some wonderful souvenirs for my photo album.
With Steve Farber and Franke James
Watching Christine Kane perform
With Liz Strauss
With Lucia Mancuso
And there's still tomorrow left!!! For those who think that blogging is only about on-line chats and distant faceless interactions, I gotta tell ya: when these bloggers get together, things happen. While many of us have been interacting online for months (or years), it was the first time for a face-to-face gathering for the majority. The number of hugs I received from "perfect strangers" (OK, I'm half correct; they're not strangers any more) was truly a measure of how successful the relationships have formed.
What fun! I want to hear all the stories!!

Hey Tim, Thanks for the great photos. I was missing everyone this morning and seeing photos reminds me of all my new friends.
