BlawgThink Reviews, Part Two.
I decided at the end of BlawgThink to take my own advice, so I asked our attendees for their thoughts on the event while still fresh in their minds.. I stuck up several huge easel-size post it notes and handed out markers. Here they are:
“Thanks for a great, creative and open-minded event. I especially liked how you left a lot of “white space” we could fill in as wanted/needed. Lots of opportunity to meet, talk, conspire with each other.”
“Great Conference. Dynamic and Stimulating. Total Success.”
“Thanks for letting me come play @ the conference. It was thought-inducing.”
“Great conference — highly interactive, tapping the collective experience and expertise of attendees and presenters. Thanks.”
“Intellectual content of the highest order, future-minded participants and all the best aspects of pre-school in the Catalyst [Ranch] created the best group experience for me yet.”
“Marvelous forum. Enjoyed both “think tank” aspect & networking.”
“Thanks! I enjoyed it and actually learned something. :-)”
“Best melding of people + technology that I’ve seen at a conference. The “open spaces” to the second day was brilliant too.”
“Thank you for the opportunity. Learned a lot — can’t wait to start blogging & trying out all these fabulous products!”
“BT has got my brain firing on all cylinders!”
“Very content rich with a wide variety subjects and very engaging and interesting group of people. The format worked very well and I’m taking a lot home with me that will be of use.”
“BT has fueled my passion to blog better.”
“Though here only 1 day, gained a week’s worth of great ideas. Seriously — found solutions to at least three different challenges, not just blog related.”
“Thanks to everyone for a great non-conference!”
“Yabba dabba doo!”
“Enthusiasm + Venue = Opportunity!”
“Open circle was terrific. Definitely a unique 2 days!”
“I heard a lot of great ideas and have many more perspectives to consider and ponder.”
“Very cool location for the gathering.”
“Surpassed my high expectations. Great mix of people (Day One Speakers and otherwise). Day Two discussions were all fascinating and productive. Looking forward to using the free software.”
“Thank you so much for allowing us to attend! We had many of our questions answered and look forward to launching our blog very soon! Carpe Noctem!”
“It was awesome — I learned an incredible amount. Thanks.”
“Blawgthink answered a few of my questions, but more importantly, it raised innumerable new questions. Primary among them, it made me question how I as using this network I have created through my blog and podcast. Thanks for bringing this creative, diverse and innovative group together.”
“A wonderful two days. It will take at least a week for all the ideas to percolate on through, but I know my blog will be better ASAP.”
“Thanks for a great non-conference! Learned a lot. Thanks again.”
“Picked up ideas that more than paid for event!”
“Very cool — totally my style + everyone else here. Heard nothing but good as I buzzed around.”
