Today I was going through my purse and came across the many cards I collected from bloggers, photographers, techies, and just overall great people from ConvergeSouth.
First, I think Sue Polinsky needs to be applauded. Organizing ConvergeSouth I’m sure brought many headaches, long days, and lots of frustration. She seems to be fairly dedicated to strengthing Greensboro’s presence and support for the local conference.
Ed Cone (who was blogging throughout the conference) discusses ConvergeSouth’s future…and take a look at the number of comments received. Whoa!
I heard people raving about ConvergeSouth Music (”The Verge”). What can I say? Sean is a hard-working man, always creating.
Andy did a fantastic job with the first annual ConvergeSouth Film Festival. He put together an excellent set of films.
I chatted with Michael Dunn who took some amazing photos of Molly McGinn at The Verge.
Met Mark Welker, who is also an awesome photographer.
Discovered Billy Jones is running for mayor.
Wish I was able to chat longer with Tiffany Brown.
Gained some useful SEO knowledge from Brandon Pierce of ShifterTV.
If you are interested in visiting some of the best small towns in NC and the surrounding states, you should visit John Delconte’s site.
Met Jason McHugh, who I originally thought was with Current since he was sandwiched in between Saskia Wilson-Brown and Brandon Gross (I arrived after the introductions). Later learned he was in the independent film biz.
Bora Zivkovic was trying to garner support for the Science Blogging Conference, and I told him how I was once a biology major (in my former life).
At the film fest I met Jude Nagurney-Camwell, who had such a peaceful and beautiful aura. And she gave me her raffle door prize. Awww, thanks 
I would be pleased to run into any of these individuals again.
It was great to meet you also. Hope we can work on something in the future.

Michael,
That would be great. I will keep in touch.
Sean,
Yeah, your brother told me you were worn out. But i guess it was worth it, right?
And yes, we will talk soon…definitely.
Jude,
Likewise. I will keep in touch.
It was great to meet you! I hope you can make it to the conference in January.
Yes Bora, it was a pleasure talking with you.
I will indeed try to make it in January.
Hi Dara, thanks for the shout-out and it was great meeting you at CS2007. Hope you take an active role in CS2008 - I think you’ve got ideas worthy of presenting and I encourage you to think about it for next year’s conference. We’re nothing without the ideas and talents of everyone who attends!
