My role is merely to blog this whole conference shindig and throw the odd curve ball into the mix when people have better things to do. The organization and real groundwork was laid long before I turned up and is being performed splendidly from what I can see. I haven't tripped over a frayed nerve as yet, or perhaps they just hide that kind of thing better round here. At least you've reminded me to finish a post off that I started last night. For the past three weeks, every time I get 'bigged up' by somebody, there's nothing on the blog to back it up. Oh, the pressures. Right, better stop this little love-in and get on with some work. We can't all be best-selling social media authors, y'know. ;-) Cheers. You’re too kind, sir.
