Today was awesome.
SOBCon08 kicked off in grand style tonight as dozens of bloggers and entrepreneurs enjoyed a cruise on the “Summer of George,” which floated us all through a brief downpour on the Chicago River and into the clear, windy night on Lake Michigan.
Christine Kane sang beautifully (while playing the guitar … and keeping her balance!).
Liz Strauss moved us with her masterful words.
The food, drink and conversation warmed our hearts.
Open Comment Night was never flashier, funner or more unforgettable.
Follow the SOBCon08 Flickr pool to see photos and videos from the conference.
Thank you to all our sponsors and organizers for putting together a night to remember.
On to a great day of learning and masterminding tomorrow!
What did you think of SOBCon Day 1? Who did you meet? How did you like the atmosphere?

It was a fabulous night, thank you everyone.
I think it was Terry who said this day, this weekend, is one of those moments that he’d remember as a highlight of his life, and as I listened to Christine singing, watched people I knew and didn’t know smiling and connecting, looked out of the window and saw the lights of the Chicago skyline against the darkness of the lake, I too thought: you will remember this moment for the rest of your life.

Someone said it was as though she had met her tribe. Ditto. I’m so happy to have met my tribe.
