The Mic Is On: We're Talking SOBCon09!

April 28, 2009 by Liz Leave a Comment

It’s Like Open Mic Only Different

The Mic Is On

Here’s how it works.

It’s like any rambling conversation. Don’t try to read it all. Jump in whenever you get here. Just go to the end and start talking. EVERYONE is WELCOME.
The rules are simple — be nice.

There are always first timers and new things to talk about. It’s sort of half “Cheers” part “Friends” and part video game. You don’t know how much fun it is until you try it.

Who, What, When, Where, Why and What’s for You?

The event that started right here in the comment box is taking place for the third year in Chicago this week. Stop by to add a word or two or to find out what will be happening that you might want to pay attention to.

  • How’d it get started?
  • Who’s going to be there?
  • Who are those speakers?
  • What will the sponsors be doing?
  • What’s happening for the folks who can’t go?

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Oh, and bring links of memories or bring your questions.

Who’s Fooling Who?

It’s the one day of the year that you can’t be sure what’s true. People get a chance to tell the most outrageous tales of events, how things work, and personal experiences.

  • What April Fools’ stories do you know?
  • Have you been caught by an April Fools’ trick? What’s the story on that?
  • Are you planning an April Fools’ joke yourself?
  • Have you ever pulled off an April Fools stunt? What was it? How much planning did it take? Whom did you catch?

And, whatever else comes up, including THE EVER POPULAR, Basil the code-writing donkey . . . and flamenco dancing (because we always get off topic, anyway.)

Oh, and bring example links.
