"If you thought the keynotes were exciting, wait until you hear what we got to see in the sneak peeks session. There was of course the disclaimer that technologies they demo may never make it as actual products, but what a lineup it was.

I’m in the process of uploading video for most of the demo’s we got to see, so bookmark this page and I’ll eventually have them all up — there are loads of them!"

What I Learned at the SEED Conference

http://www.passion2publish.com/2008/01/what-i-learned.html
"Last Friday I had the opportunity to attend the SEED conference here in Chicago. What is this SEED conference you ask?

"A One-Day Conference on Design, Entrepreneurship & Inspiration, by 37signals, Segura Inc. & Coudal Partners."

First off, the conference was inside the Rem Koolhass designed Tribune Student Center -- which is an amazing building itself, nestled in the middle of an entire campus designed by Mies van der Rohe. So, the fact that my attention was diverted from drooling over that much beauty is testament to the value of the conference. But I definitely used the breaks to walk the halls with my jaw on the floor. If you live in or around Chicago, or are just visiting, it's definitely worth the trip in the cold."
