More people. And best, we have engaged an events planner who actually knows how to …

CETW Proceeding As Planned November 1, 2012 by Super User Lawrence Dvorchik, the longtime organizer of Customer Engagement Technology World (aka CETW) traded emails with me yesterday, after I guessed correctly that people in some corners were all worked up about the impact of Hurricane Sandy on the trade show planned for the middle of next week in New York.

Briefly, …

Canada 3.0 Moves From Small Town To Big City July 5, 2012 by Super User I quite liked the Canada 3.0 digital media forum and trade show I went to this spring, though I wondered what on Earth it was doing in a small town’s recreation centre.
