After two years of hiatus, the idea virus that is Whiteboard is still alive. Yesterday, I announced we're doing it again on Friday, May 21 here in Virginia Beach and...
- This blog received the most single-day hits in its entire history... by double.
- People are taking advantage of the pre-website $69 rate... event unseen.
- We're hosting it on a Friday so you can enjoy the beach... Whiteboard is about to become WhiteboardWalk.
- We're waiting on confirmations from just two speakers.
- We're having Q&A time built into the program this time.
- Our goal is to put leaders on stage together who would never appear together at other conferences due to methodological differences.
- May 21 is late enough for great beach weather... and early enough for pre-Memorial day rates on hotels.
- Announcing some speakers next week...
I think you really hit on something with Whiteboard. I brought my team up to the first one, and you were able to pack a lot more quality into one day than most conferences do in three days.
We are stoked because you have built a reputation for quality Ben. I can't wait to see what you are going to put together.

Looking forward to it - and wouldn't be able to come if it wasn't on a Friday, so thanks for thinking of folks like me.

Wow ... double hits. Shows they (I) like the work you do when you direct a conference and we tell others about it.
Looking forward to details.
Anything I can do to help?
