Forget Me- Meet Glenda at BlogWorld Expo

September 3, 2008 · 10 comments

Glenda Watson Hyatt Okay, I’m going to BlogWorld Expo in a few weeks, and if you’re going, I’d love to see you and connect (not for lunch or dinner - let’s just say hi and check in). BUT, and this is a big but, you should forget about meeting me. It’s easy to meet me. I get around a bit. I throw my own events all the time. You know who you need to meet, REALLY, is Glenda Watson Hyatt.

Glenda’s a published author, an acclaimed advocate for accessibility rights and reform, QUITE the blogger, a joker (see the bottom of this post).

If you’re a business looking to understand the power of the online world — plus the sheer frustration — for bloggers and web citizens with accessibility concerns, and you don’t meet Glenda, you’ve done your company a disservice.

Finally, bring an extra $20 and buy a copy of her book, I’ll Do It Myself. I’ve read parts of it at least a dozen times. When I feel sad or lazy or down in the dumps, I read about Glenda’s personal strength, her conviction, and her family’s love and support, and I find myself giving my efforts an extra push. If you don’t leave Blog World Expo with your own copy (she even signed MINE), then why’d you come?

You can meet me any old time. Make SURE you meet Glenda at Blog World Expo.

How do I respond to this, Chris, except with a humble thank you. And a hug in Vegas!

@Glenda: send Chris a “cease & desist” order for using the photo without permission :-P I’m joking of course…

It’d be great to meet both of you if I make it out there. I’m attending another even in AZ at the end of the month so I’m having trouble getting organized for both. I figure I can at least make it for one of the days…if I do, I’m hunting both of you down :-)

Sounds like fun!

Aw, Chris, give Glenda a hug for me when you see her. I can’t wait to meet her at SOBCon next year!

Thank you for the linky love Chris. Glenda is a Rock Star of the blogosphere and we are very glad she is able to join us again this year!

Chris, looking forward to Vegas in a couple. Looking forward to meeting you, and meeting Glenda. I’ll for sure pick up a copy of her book. Thanks for the recommend. Following Glenda on the Twitter, and I love her already. See you soon.
