Thanks to everyone for you participation and votes. So far we’ve got almost 300 votes here and the whrrl votes are still rolling in. Results will be announced later this week and our winner will be posted here. Stay tuned.
Due to lack of early participation, the organizers opted to fill the speaking space on the panel with an invited speaker. We were notified today of the untimely end of the contest. The organizers were kind enough to offer free admission to the event should be be in Chicago and the jury is still out on that one.
We’ve found out that we were included on the original email launching the event but unfortunately, the email canceling the event wasn’t forwarded our way and no further action was taken, that we can tell. We only got the actual scoop after email them to verify the entry was good. This is one of the pitfalls of Social Media and the fast take-off/turn around potential for this type of project. Constant and diligent effort is needed to keep everyone on the same page from start to finish… regardless of lifespan of a project.
We’re not upset other than that we really felt that we would win this and who in their right mind would pass up an occasion to visit Chicago near Christmas? What are your thoughts? Leave them here or at the facebook link above.
