140conf coming to Hutchinson Kansas

Hutchinson, where I live, will host the 140conf on November 1. This is a conference that explores how real-time media, like Facebook and Twitter, have changed our world.

The 140 Character Conference is a really big deal, and this is the first one that will be held in a smaller town. Hutchinson is in the company of London, Paris, San Francisco and New York.

I applied to speak, and received word a couple of days ago that my topic was selected to be part of the schedule. My topic is, “Twitter is Today’s Civic Club.” I haven’t actually written that speech yet, but I will in the next few weeks. I’ve read various things over the years that have led me to this conclusion. Now, I just need to retrace and make notes, which shouldn’t be that difficult.

If you’re anywhere near Hutchinson, do make an effort to attend. You can get a discount off the ticket price by going to http://140.vg/smalltown140disc. If you’re a student, you can attend for free.

It should be a fascinating experience. I’m really looking forward to it. I’m always saying I want new thought coming into my world and here it is. Delivered on a silver platter. If I’d suggested it would come to my little town the same it came to Tel Aviv and Los Angeles would you have believed me? Would I have believed me? Nonetheless, here it is!.
