Yeah, that bird was so random! It was flying around right near the entrance upstairs. I figured, since Twitter was talked about SO MUCH, that it must have been planted there on purpose
Look forward to talking with you soon!

oooooo, lookie all the cool blogger peoples!
Can’t wait for the rest of the news from Blog World Expo and your experience. I’m in Hawaii for Hawaii Geek Week and Podcamp/WordCamp Hawaii and a lot of geek, blogging, and WordPress in between. Having a lot of work fun, but no sand and surf for this busy girl.
Showing your face in my “How WordPress Changes Lives” video, though.

Life is tough in Hawaii I’ll bet
That will have to be a goal of mine for next year’s events!
It was really fun to speak with you and feel your excitement and passion for blogging and wordpress. It’s like I said in your interview,
Thanks for the comment Lorelle!

These guys have been doing this for years. We didn’t even know about blogging until you told us about it. We really have a lot of work to do and we are going to do it. At least I am.

And I know you CAN do it! The best thing about what you are doing, Jeanie and Jessie, is that you have a passion for the industry you’re a part of. The more you can starting thinking – “Oh, I could blog about that,” the more you’ll be able to share fun stuff with visitors who will want to keep coming back.
Keep up the great work!

Gray Wolf knows his stuff no doubt about that…. but i dunno why i got the feeling that he is a sad sad man…. every video, every pic… he doesent enjoy things…. look @ your pic with him. And than look at look at @ gary. I dont know, something tells me keep away…..

Interesting observation and one I’d have to agree with – I met a lot of people at the Blog World Expo 2008 and it seemed like he and one other (who I won’t mention openly) were not at all nice to speak with.
Shoemoney, ProBlogger, Guy Kawasaki, Lee Odden, Lorelle from WordPress, eMom, Muhammad Saleem, all of them were really nice, cordial, and at least willing to give me the time of day. Gray Wolf, not so much…
Wonder if Gray Wolf will respond to this?

i really dont care if or what wolf will respond. I see what he tweets. I dont know… too bad he got so much knowledge. Darren Rowse is a great guy as well, helped me with a couple of “problems”. I really would like to meet all this people! One day…..

I definitely recommend Blog World Expo 2009! I’m sure they’ll all be there again.
Thanks again for the comments.
