Funny you should ask. That's the twenty thousand dollar
question.
Some say lightning never strikes twice (a fact disputed by a man
in Maine) and those who were there for last year's 20x2
random-ata.
Last year's question was
answered with Twister and bouncing balls, with music and cat
chow jingles, with power point presentations and hula dances. It
was serious, silly, noteworthy, poignant, and consistently
refreshing.
And going in, we knew only one thing:
"The tedious ubiquity of sitting elbow-to-elbow in folding chairs, listening to Noted Internet Marketing Genius So-and-So drone on behind a podium about things you already knew?
It's dead. Over. Yesterday's fish-wrap." |
And so the answer is ... we don't know the
answer. To prepare is to be ready for anything.
With these many vibrant, creative, energetic people in one place, at
one time -- with one question -- to answer however they see fit,
surprising things can, and do, happen. Fasten
your seat belt, kids. It should be quite a ride. Andy
