I Am Ready For TEDx Lansing! Are You?

Okay, I final got a chance to prep for tomorrow’s (now, later today’s) big event… TEDx Lansing! My grandiose plan is to actually try to both type AND post notes about the presentations during the event. We’ll find out how realistic this is tomorrow morning. But if it gets in the way or I’m terrible at being able to listen and post adequately, I’ll likely stop.

In any case, I’m pumped for the event. I prepped blog posts for the 4 separate sessions and that got me to look through the presenters again. It looks like a great line-up. So, I’ll be heading to the Wharton Center in the morning for the 9:00am (sharp!) start time. Three Internet-capable devices will be in tow and wi-fi will be provided, so hopefully I can at least get a few comments tossed through the tubes. You can use this post as an on-ramp to the other posts. Here’s a break down of the 4 sessions or go to the schedule page on the event site: Continue reading »
