Thank yous, thank yous, and more thank yous

Didn't get a chance yesterday to give a "shout out" to the wonderful sponsors, speakers, and bloggers I met at the iBlog conference.  So, here I go:

Jody at Iowa Geek and Have Kid will Travel was both the brains and beauty behind the conference.  Yes, in an earlier post I mentioned that this was the inaugural conference.  Jody is planning on the first weekend of November 2010 in a TBA location in Iowa.  I love that she's moving the conference around the state!

The site of the conference was the beautiful Hotel Pattee in Perry, Iowa (approximately 40 miles west of Des Moines).  They also catered the conference.  Let me just say that the diet took a hit.  So yummy!!!

One of the sponsors of the conference was Land O Lakes Dairy from right here in our great state of Iowa.

Another sponsor was Dexter PC Computer Services from Dexter, Iowa.  They had very cute pink netbook and a way cool desktop that I was drooling over (as a gift for my husband, of course!).  Brian and Linda were very informative.  Check them out!

Creative Memories also sponsored the conference.  They totally hooked us up with StoryBook Creator Plus 3.0.  I am a HUGE scrapbooking fanatic, but I've never really digitally scrapped.  After listening to speakers Jenny Dammann, Web Specialist with CM, and Amber Gustafson, consultant, I am so excited to play with the software.  Not to mention, I am in NEED (not just want) of the MemoryManager software.




Some more speakers were:
PR Princess Claire Celsi
BJ Weber from Ankeny Tax and Accounting
Melanie Nelson at Blogging Basics 101
Darcy Milder from His and Hers Photography
Deb Brown at Deb Works Online Marketing Strategies and Franklin County News Today
Jennic Law from KangarooBoo

I learned so much from these people.  I don't know how to begin to say thank you to them all!

Thank you, thank you, thank you.
