PCMA Day 3: Entertainment
Jan 17, 2008
Jason Alexander as Donny Clay, motivational speaker, at lunch today: OMG! I could not even begin to describe his act, but suffice to say there were several minutes-long stretches where I was laughing so hard tears came to my eyes. My stomach is...
PCMA day 3: I have met the aliens, and I may just be one of them
Jan 17, 2008
So, here's a quick skip on the session I just went to about making meetings relevant to Generation Y, aka Gen Why, as speaker Eric Chester called them. ...
PCMA day 3: Google-licious
Jan 16, 2008
If you think you know everything there is about searching on Google, go hear Jim Spellos of Meeting U talk about it. Holy cow, I had no idea of all the functionality there is out there, and I consider myself fairly Google-savvy. More later, since...

Jan 16, 2008
I may not be able to say it, but I am now a big fan of this new presentation format that four intrepid presenters tried out as an experiment in which the audience got to take part. (Here are some YouTube examples of the format in action). The...

PCMA Day 1: Web 2.0 session
Jan 16, 2008
I found the session yesterday afternoon on Web 2.0, led by Corbin Ball, a little disappointing. Yeah, it's interesting that we've gone from 133 Web sites in total back in 1993 to 9 million sites being added each hour now (if I heard that right...
PCMA day 1: When doing good things can go bad
Jan 16, 2008
I went to a really interesting session this afternoon at the PCMA Annual Meeting called "The Law of Doing Good Things." Led by one of my favorite meeting industry attorneys/professors Tyra Hilliard, it was all about how being a good Samaritan can...
