Here they are – the Founding Three. These are bad pix because I used my phone; camera cable’s too much trouble. There are 1,000 women here – the energy is palpable. It’s quite a thing to see because I attended in 2006 when there were around 500, 2007 when there were 800 — now there are 1,000. Doubled in three years. Pretty cool.
The hugeness is more palpable this year; you can’t do it all and some choices are bound to be wrong. I was in what was clearly going to be a great session and left to attend something else I had to go to; hard thing to do. No matter where you go in something this rich and dense, you’re going to miss something else.
It is thrilling though, to hear all these smart women say such great things – all in the same building I’m surprised that the hotel hasn’t levitated yet. More when I feel more organized.
Wish I was there with you again this year. Have a blast!
Cynthia,
Glad I got to meet you at BlogHer and discover your blog. I’ll add it to my bookmarks and be back for sure!

Cynthia,
It was indeed a pretty wonderful conference. Wouldn’t have missed it and so great to see you again and have a few ‘little visits’ as we found our way among all the breakout sessions and parties.

warmly

You too! You are a unique one and it was fun talking with you, too.
Oh Mary Margaret – hanging out with you and Kate was a gas. More contact this year than last interval between conferences I hope!
