Meeting Influencers and Inspirers at Gnomedex

Starting on Friday, another great conference takes place. For over nine years, technology evangelist Chris Pirillo has hosted what is known as Gnomedex in the beautiful city of Seattle.

This year, I am privileged to be attending along with my friends Shashi Bellamkonda (the Social Media “Swami”) and Steven Fisher, both of Network Solutions. During this time, I will be reporting to you about the sessions happening during the conference and bringing you pictures of the events, including tweetups, dinners, lunches, sessions and even the hallway activity.

There is an interesting lineup scheduled and I hope that it’s not going to be the same stuff that I’ve heard as it relates to social media because that would make it pointless, so my expectations of Gnomedex are high – but from what I’ve been told from veteran attendees, this one shouldn’t be missed. But if you’re not able to make it down to the Bell Harbor Conference Center, from what I’ve gathered the event will be covered live on UStream.tv so you can follow along on the action.

As part of my journey to Gnomedex, I’m also working with the team from Network Solutions to help promote the new redesigned website that will help make the customer experience much better. You can read more about this redesign here. Some interesting deals and contests will be going down during the two-day conference so stay tuned.

And if you’re going to be at Gnomedex, please be sure to stop me in the hallway or in a session and say “hello”. I love meeting people and enjoy swapping business cards. I’ll be the one with a camera taking an exorbitant amount of photos.

See you at Gnomedex!

      I'll be gradually posting photos and notes from the sessions and the events after the conference. Be sure to check out my Posterous blog for some notes “on the road”: http://kenyeung.posterous.com.
