Quite a compliment to Gary. As you know, I didn't find Gary's keynote last year particularly insightful. Barry S was a good pick with his connection as a winery owner but his knowledge and experience as a venture capitalist is what I felt was worth the price of admission. Just think what could happen if Malcolm Gladwell showed up.

I talked to Seth. He turned me down and suggested Gary V would be more appropriate. I had to inform him the we had “been there, done that”…

As a 2nd year WBC'er, I say that this conference blasted out the walls. Barry Schuler was awesome, that's what I'm talking about…he's a real keynote speaker. And thank you, thank you, thank you for thinking outside the box–bring on the Seth Godins for WBC10.

We'll collect the presentations up and post them to Slideshare (embed here) over the next week or so. We have to re-group and get our heads back in place!

Allan – It was fabulous! I couldn't have asked for more as a first time attendee. I also enjoyed getting to know you on our bus #7 journey on Saturday. Looking forward to 2010. – Felicia aka @winefinesse
