I did see you a couple of times but you were moving with purpose, so I figured you were on your way to the next destination. I'm so sorry we missed each other! As a long-time bifocal wearer I can testify to the difficulty of reading those names on the badges...next year I'll just use my first name so the print is not so teeny-tiny. I am completely bummed that I didn't get to your session, too. It was one that topped my list, but it was in conflict with one that was a "MUST ATTEND". I will definitely be downloading it, though. :) The Smashcast kids are great. I turned Dancergirl onto them the very day I got home and she thinks they're pretty great, too. We'll just have to figure this out better next time, DnW Elizabeth! I did see you a couple of times but you were moving with purpose, so I figured you were on your way to the next destination.

I just broke down yesterday and got my first pair of drugstore reading glasses, after I realized that I hadn't been able to read name tags well at the conference. Rites of passage. So I'm sure you walked past me several times and I missed the chance to squeal and be joyful. Next time! And I'm thrilled that you got a snap of Nancy White's web of notes from "deeply geeky" - that was a great session. I actually got to meet the Smashcast kids and one of their advisors at the birds of a feather session on Gadgets - not surprisingly, they are as impressive one-on-one as they are in front of a large group.

It's rare that I can get uninhibited people photos without being a zillion miles away or holding the camera in sort of a random way so they don't know I'm shooting. Your sessions were terrific and it really was great to meet you at last. Hope we cross paths again before another year passes. :) I love that photo — pure joy!
