I’ve been following Daniel for awhile now on Twitter and heard him mention this conference on WordCast. That guy is definitely doing some cool and good things with tech.
Hasn’t Daniel been on your show, Jeff? He’s a delight. I’m so excited about the work he is doing to bring teens together to meet with other great thinking teens, and showing off the kids who have grabbed onto the Internet with everything they have and changed how we use it. Facebook applications, video blogs, Twitter, social media exchanges, tools, and networks, these kids are rocking our world and it’s important we pay attention to them, but also that we help them as much as possible. I’m really excited about this conference and what will come out of it.
Thanks for the awesome post, Lorelle and Blog Herald! Look forward to seeing you guys at the conference in January :) Happy Holidays!
