Re: First Annual COMMON conference - Spring 2007

We tried for iSocial^^2 (iSocial squared) and that stuck right up till everyone got there. Some board member guy went around whipping up dissent for our new name and the masses voted 'Cuds 2 forever.'

It was a great Cuds 2 though no matter what the name. A fantastic wrap up to a fantastic conference.

I for one felt the community portion of the conference was up several levels over past conferences. One measure of that was the record amounts awarded in the 50/25/25 raffles for the COMMON foundation. You don't get record amounts without good crowds at the events. All the iSocial events were very well attended. Many things to do and give aways and food at nearly all of them. There was even an excellent crowd at MOM, perhaps twice or more what has been in recent conferences by my guess.

The Main event party on Thursday was awesome - they gave away a 50" Sony HDTV!! Imagine the feeling COMMON President Randy Dufault had when they drew his number for the TV!!! He gave it back of course and a new winner was drawn. But there was Trevor on the stage looking for the winner while Randy is holding up the wnning ticket right next to him! Classic.

I think Larry told me that name was voted down. Of course, he called me in
