Exploring the disruptive nature of twitter, 140 characters at a time #140conf
Our friend Jeff Pulver has bee working feverishly to make this a reality. Here’s a taste:
Since announcing on March 23rd “The 140 Character Conference” (#140conf) taking place at New World Stages in New York City on June 16/17, we have been humbled by the people who have come forward to be a part of this event. We thank everyone who has either contacted me directly or posted their nomination for someone on twitter.At the moment we are in the process of building the schedule and confirming the “cast of 140 characters” whose presence will help define this event. These cast members are flying in from around the world to be at the event. And while not all members of the cast will have formal speaking roles, many will and their presence will be felt at the event. The cast members joining us will be coming from as far as away as: Perth, Australia and Doha, Qatar as well as from across North America, Europe and the Middle East. This will be a gathering of people with a variety of backgrounds and the one thing everyone who will be there has in common is twitter.
We have no idea if we’ll be there or not at this point, but it’s a defining event the stream of NOW Media. Go check it out!
