140 Characters Conference - starts today!

Having worked on the 140 Characters Conference more or less non-stop since the end of March, putting in something like 90 to 110 hours a week and maybe more, I’m really looking forward to the event starting at 08:45AM in the morning.

While this conference was announced at the end of this past March, it feels like I’ve been working on this conference for some time. Maybe it is just my years of experience in creating / hosting / producing events, but there is something really special happening at #140conf. The reality is that twitter is the common bond amongst a group of people that have just about nothing else in common.

During my morning talk I hope to share some of my thoughts about the “State of NOW.” I will be announcing two follow on events, #140conf: London and #140conf: LA which are both scheduled to in October 2009. A formal “Casting Call” for the next set of Characters is forthcoming.

This morning when I will stand in front of the attending audience, I will be a humble person. Things are different now. Better in many ways and had I not experienced some of things I did since March, 2008, I would not appreciate this moment as much as I do. I am quite impressed by both the number of people who are attending and what great distance some of my guests have traveled to be a part of the #140conf experience.

I don’t think words alone could share how special and amazing I know tomorrow will be. Who would know that Time Magazine would put twitter on their cover in one week and the following weekend twitter would become the platform of choice to find out news and information from the #IranElection.

I don’t know if there will be enough time for me to share my appreciation for everyone who has contributed directly to the success of the event. I always wanted to produce a conference which had wide enough appeal to bring in reporters from both Rolling Stone and Sports illustrated to Business Week and Forbes and the 140 Characters Conference is such an event.

Special thanks to everyone who has come out and who has helped me spread the word about #140conf.

The great thing about this wedding dress is that it gives the bride a wide option of shoes and accessories. She can wear it with high heeled sandals, flat or barefoot sandals or even boots. It’s a fun design to the bride doesn’t have to stick to the traditional accessories; a beautiful scarf can be used in place of a necklace

A dress is like a barbed fence. It protects the premises without restricting the view.

Bale, looking rail-thin and wideeyed, has the Oscar nomination and Golden Globe win, but it's Wahlberg who's the more memorable in a less showy role. A movie with both brains and brawn and a knockout performance from Bale, The Fighter takes a familiar rags-to-riches story and delivers a feelgood hit. The Fighter looks at first as if it is going to be a far more interesting movie than the straightforward and even rather undemanding drama we finally get. We grow to respect each character's perceptions and forgive their faults, allowing them to win us over in a jubilant finale - a far cry from the schmaltzy The Blind Side. The film bounces us from one pugilistic or domestic affray to the next, only coming to a near-standstill whenever Wahlberg gets acting space. It goes to show. Putting aside the characters who get unfair treatment, and the one too many segues which work clumsily to keep pace with the demands of story arc, such touches make The Fighter a better than average boxing movie. The emotional meat of The Fighter lies not in the traditional sports-movie narrative of the ascension of the underdog (although there is plenty of that), but rather in the turmoil of Micky's dysfunctional family

sorry to ask this here but… I really love your theme, would it happen to be a free one i can download somewhere, or is it a custom theme you had made? Soon i will be launching my own blog, however i’m not great with designs but i do like the style of your site so it would be excellent if i could find (or buy) something with a similar look as my last designer cannot finish my site. Thanks! Feel free to check out my site Michigan address directory when you got time.
