Re: [applekeynote] Birds of a Feather at Macworld 2009

Brian – if the BoF goes ahead, we will think of you and pause.. Better still, send baby pics – yeah, use a Keynote file.

Oh, and send some KN materials I can use to promote your work.

Re #1: I was surprised as any in 2008 to get the gig, but it made me determined to do a “good enough” job to get a return gig. I guess I went above and beyond the call of duty cos they asked me to do the Powertools... I has applied just to do a repeat of my 75” workshop updated hopefully with iWork 09 and more neuroscience (oh, and Nancy Duarte’s new book as prizes).

Best

All this Macworld talk bums me out because:

#1 I tried once to get a Keynote or iwork preso approved and never got  
anywhere
#2 I tried once also to get a BOF approved and never even got a response
(I suspect they saw my site, saw that I sold Keynote products and  
decided to ignore me, though a heck of a lot of authors also do  
seminars at MW).
but those pale in comparison to the fact that this is the third  
Macworld in a row I'll miss.

But, the reason I can't make it this year trumps all the other  
excuses. My first child (a girl) is due in December, hence my wife  
telling me in no uncertain terms that I could NOT go to MW this year. :)
