    wow looks like you did have a great time. I hope to go to one someday (after getting to Japan that is)
    It's really something to have a chance to network and just make new friends in the process.

    I've never heard of Poken. before but it seems really interesting and easy to use. I wonder though how well it would o in the States? (if it isn't in some states here already?)

    What were the ain topics discussed, or is it simply an open evening to just chat it up with others?

    I think Poken has a good chance in Japan due to the cuteness factor, not sure how it would do in the States.

    There was a slideshow presentation by smart.fm, Poken and Danny Choo but mostly it was an open evening to chat and meet new people.

    Hey Chris! I love what you've done to the front page, how you show the excerpts and the big read on button. Maybe you changed that a long time ago? I usually navigate directly to your post via the RSS feed so I wouldn't know... Well, it looks great anyways! :)
  • Chris Gaunt · 9 months ago
    Thanks. I changed it a little while ago. In fact I'm about to change it again this week for the last time! lol

    Business Poken the Bizken? Little guy in a suit? Seems like they need something that wouldn't be embarrassing to pull out after a meeting. :)
