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.</p>Alana GentryTue, 28 Jul 2009 13:38:46 -0000http://winebloggersconference.org/from-the-organizers/2009-wine-bloggers-conference-a-success/#comment-13451175<p>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"... :)</p>Joel VTue, 28 Jul 2009 12:25:44 -0000http://winebloggersconference.org/from-the-organizers/2009-wine-bloggers-conference-a-success/#comment-13450909<p>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.</p>Alana GentryTue, 28 Jul 2009 12:18:46 -0000http://winebloggersconference.org/from-the-organizers/2009-wine-bloggers-conference-a-success/#comment-13405539<p>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!</p>Joel VMon, 27 Jul 2009 13:32:45 -0000http://winebloggersconference.org/from-the-organizers/2009-wine-bloggers-conference-a-success/#comment-13404982<p>Awesome job, Allan!

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.
