June 1 we presented Respectance. All preparations went smoothly. It was my job to make sure that Respectance would be seen and picked up by the journalists and the visitors. I think we did a great job. The entire team, Todd Wilkinson, Marcin Pyla, David Evans and myself gave the full 100%. And of course we were supported by Martha Mihaly, the Cracow team, and Angela Bassant with flowers and Bart of Sterk Decoratie. It was a pleasant experience to work with so many people with an enormous drive. Here is a short impression: preparation, booth, presentation.

We had created some lucky dolls with our logo on it and of course we shared the callas flowers to visitors. It seemed to work, the flowers were accepted as a friendly gesture.
Best thing: the results are very good. We got a lot of press. Check it out here: http://blog.respectance.com/2007/06/01/the-death-of-social-networking/
To finish it off, thanks to the organization, Boris, Patrick and all the others. It was one of the most interactive events I ever went to. Read here about Boris and me lunching at Dolores.
