#thinkvisibility was great
September 16th, 2009
Spent the last weekend at the fantastic Thinkvisibility conference. It was great to catch up with a few people and great to meet some more new friends.
As a conference I think @thehodge has got it just about right, its a great mix of the social and the useful. Not too big an event and enough time and opportunity to meet nearly everyone.
Some people I met: -
Yoast
Name checked me as the guy who drew his avatar for him, resulting in everyone turning round and looking at me even though I was hungover enough to chuck my guts up at any second.

Great presentation as ever though and id like to thank Yoast for the cufflinks he brought me.
Jay Butler
Great to catch up, now permanently fixed as my Rum and Wasabi partner 
Judith Lewis
Great to catch up with Judith and she delivered a very polished presentation as ever.
AlCarlton
Creator of the awesome Conference Calendar as well as a bunch of other sites. I like Al, he fits with my long history of having and being friends with people who enjoy an ‘adventure’
Chris Garrett
Finally got to chat
Bony Toad
Stephen is a great chap, always has been. He actually made me snort when, sat next to me, he posted this twitpic
Kieron Donoghue
Great to meet at last, keep up the good work with Share my playlists and keep on nagging me to stop tweeting whilst we drink.
Tim Nash – A great session on profiling (Which I am doing a separate post on Tim and thats why I havent written this bit until now sigh )
Hobo Seo – great to chat Shaun
Mr Scott Jones and Ian – probably as drunk as I was
Anthony from Bronco
And Lindop – as ever good to see you mate
Everyone else I have forgotten as im an Idiot
And of course Dom and Mrs Dom (soon enough) for putting on a great conference.
