About the blogstorm. Personally I think it’s a great and daring idea from an interactive marketing bureau to take the step and interact in real life with bloggers about how to approach a target group through a medium that’s new and unclaimed by marketeers. It shows of(f) great respect for the blogging community and its active writing members. I for one was glad to have participated, and I really hope this was just the beginning of cool things to come.
It’s the best marketing related infotalks I went to ever. The unique concept, the warm welcome… Ogilvy, you talk the talk, and you walk the walk. This must be a great company to work in. If you get the freedom to set up a brainstorm like this with such a moderator… I tip my hat off. Really. Respect for your attempts to try to merge a decent campaign with a new trend. This is how it’s done. Let all marketing companies worldwide that want to use blogs as a marketing tool in the mix take an example of your approach, because this is the way to do it.
Marco, I have enjoyed your moderation of the brainstorm very much. The presentation was really interesting, and I’m going to blog some more articles about some facts and statistics from it. There’s a lot of useful and valuable information in it that I can use for further spin-offs. Thanks a lot for a great time. It’s so cool when you learn stuff while having fun. I was a reader of your marketingfacts already, but now I’ve become a fan.
Same goes for Hans. I think there’s a lot of things we could change thoughts about, and that could lead us to some pretty farfetched but realistic predictions. I look forward to meeting you again. It’ll be sweet. Meanwhile, I’ve signed up on your rss. Feed me knowledge.
Thanks to Franky for hosting the event. Good presentation. Really liked the topics you took us through before noon. Very nifty. I picked up some things that I missed one way or the other, and it kind-of-completed some stories and events I couldn’t connect to each other before. Thanks for the insights. Very good deskresearch.
I’ll have to add a lot of links in the sidebar, but that’s for the next update. I’m thinking of a full-feed to please Bart.
I’ve dropped the caps in the RSS to please Cindy and Luc, and possibly many others who didn’t ask me about it. Okay. I was just lazy. I’ll confess. It’s better now, I think.
