Hillary Johnson's event notes

What MySpace Means presenter Hillary Johnson, who flew from the US to speak at our event, has blogged her notes on the day. She has also blogged an overview of her own presentation, and goes into a bit more detail on some points.

When I came up with the idea for an organisation that would put together events like yesterday’s - an organisation that is legally the Engagement Alliance, and that practically is me and the advisory board - and help businesses figure out the importance and implications of online communication, I was sitting in the passenger seat as Hillary drove us around my hometown in Ohio, searching for wifi. She had flown in from LA to meet me as I visited my family, so we could cover off in person some ideas that had been germinating online. (Not being able to be online as we had those face-to-face discussions was a definite disadvantage.) So it was entirely appropriate to have her participate in the EA’s first event, and I’m pleased she could make it. Thanks for sharing your notes, Hillary!
