There isn't enough time for the sessions. It turns out that they all read each other, but never had a chance to meet face-to-face. What's not so great?

I first met Heather Gold when she did stand up comedy at the first Blogher conference in 2005. I do a lot of presenting and am spending to much time writing bullet points, creating slides, and practicing what I’m going to say. One thing I learned is that if you get a laugh, say it again in another way.

There was spotty cell phone reception, so I got my news the old fashioned way – reading a newspaper! Ironically, one of the shorts I read was a piece about how people are now spending more time on Facebook than Google.
