FoxForward 2007 – Post Conference + 1 day

, September 10, 2007

I apologize that I haven’t completed my blog entries during the conference. I have my notes, and I’ll get them published as soon as possible. I wanted to make a note this morning though, to thank everyone that made FoxForward possible. First Kim, my wife, because she worked so hard for no benefit to herself [...]

FoxForward 2007 – Day 1

, September 7, 2007

Last night I wasn’t dreaming about FoxForward too much. And that concerned me. I was dreaming and wondering why I wasn’t dreaming about FoxForward. Some things just don’t make sense in dreams. I got up at about 6:30am and started working on preparing for FoxForward Day 1. All of the printing that we had thought [...]

FoxForward : Koziol Chained To Desk

, September 5, 2007

Bad news for FoxForward fans. John Koziol had to cancel being a presenter. Evidently work has cancelled all vacations and called everyone home. I’m going to really miss out on his presentation as it was one of them that I was dying to see. John and I hung out a good bit at FoxForward 2006 [...]

The conference books have arrived and it is nice to have them in my grubby little hands!  I believe that we have all of the pieces to put the conference bags together.  Each attendee (and presenter) will be receiving a bag full of some really nice stuff for the conference.  [...]

It’s just over a week until the FoxForward 2007 conference and things are starting to come together … in my office.  Conference bags, boxes of t-shirts, sponsor materials, and swag.  It’s really a mess in here!  I’m not normally that tidy in my office but this is ridiculous!  I’ve got to get some printing done [...]

Janice was our hotel coordinator for FoxForward 2006 and again this year.  Janice and I had scheduled a meeting for yesterday to go over the room layout and our needs for the conference.  Janice was to have just returned from an extended vacation to Canada to see some family and friends, and forced our meeting [...]

Gah.  It’s crunch time right now.  There’s stuff happening behind the scenes at a rapid pace now. The shirts have arrived.  Attendees get a t-shirt with a FoxForward logo over the breast pocket and a large logo across the back.  I’m very pleased with the design of the shirts.  The image was taken from the [...]

FoxForward – Going to the Loafing Leprechaun

, July 15, 2007

There were a couple of criticisms of the FoxForward conference last year and I aim to take those criticisms to heart and correct them for this year. One criticism, and rightly so, is that the bar at the Hilton Garden Inn is tiny.  Heck, last year they were rebuilding it so that it was really [...]
