Some top favorite moments w/ SAP08:
1) March08: The whole of 2008 offered fantastic conversations with Solutions Are Power; and Shashi’s talk with Guy Kawasaki serves as a kick-off symbol for the year’s interview series for me. I liked seeing the opportunity unfold for the community to network with him and vice versa: http://blog.networksolutions.com/2008/interview-with-guy-kawasaki-on-his-latest-venture-alltopcom/
2) June08: Rohit Bhargava’s book Personality Not Included offers plenty to small business — how to personalize your brand in the context of social media. But an added bonus this year was translating online talks about his book to an offline interview event + reception for small businesses. Meeting in-person with the community remains a pillar for networking and collaboration. So his live interview with Jonny Goldstein & a co-hosted reception by NetSol / DC Media Makers proved a favorite this year.
