Fade to Play

Matt Mullenweg

Last month I was privileged to speak at the Northern Voice Social Media/Blogging Conference in Vancouver. It is a fascinating social event and it is one event that I am sure not to miss each year. It is an intimate affair with about 250 friends paying $60 for 2 days of socialisation, good conversation, and awesome speakers. It sells out every year and is divided into the Moose camp session (like barcamp) on Friday and the more formal accepted speaker session on Saturday. This year’s keynote was Matt Mullenweg of Wordpress.

So my slides on Slideshare are embedded below:

One of the coolest parts of Northern Voice were meeting people like Keira-anne whom I had followed online, but never met IRL:

Brunchwalk with friends
Sunday morning some of us went out for Brunch at Havana’s which morphed into a photowalk as the weather was absolutely stunning.

Relevance: Northern Voice feels much more like a family affair than a formal event. I will work on getting some of my SXSW friends to attend next year.
