				<description><![CDATA[<p>Although some people find it hard to believe, I really enjoy getting up in front of a room full of people and giving a talk and last night was no exception! I was honoured to be invited by Brockville's Ad &amp; Sales Club to visit their lovely city and present on the topic of Doing Business on the Web, something we try to know a thing or two about. My thanks go out to Anisa Sherwood (a great <a href="http://www.great-rates.ca" title="Anisa Sherwood, Brockville Mortgage Broker">Brockville Mortgage Broker</a> from <a href="http://www.great-rates.ca" title="Brockville Mortgage Broker">Assured Mortgages</a>) who tirelessly organized the talk, President Robert Tavares from <a href="http://www.freedom55financial.com/locations/english/locations3.asp#Brockville" title="Freedom 55 Financial Brockville">Freedom 55 Financial</a> for a great introduction, and to all of the members of the Club who I had the chance to chat with! A special thanks to the crew who took me out for a drink at <a href="http://www.thebrockpub.com/" title="The Brock Pub">The Brock Pub</a>, including Kathy MacDonald (from <a href="http://www.brockvillehouses.com" title="Brockville real estate agents">Brockville real estate agents</a> the <a href="Brockville%20real%20estate%20agents" title="Brockville real estate agents">Keary Team</a>), Taira Kirkland (a very talented and highly knowledgeable <a href="http://www.tairakirkland.com/" title="Brockville web designer">Brockville web designer</a>), and Dave Holmes (from <a href="http://www.testworx.ca/" title="high end server">high end server</a> vendor <a href="http://www.testworx.ca/" title="Testworx">Testworx</a>), who brought along his lovely wife Stephanie.</p><br /><br /><p>I think the talk went well despite yesterday's incredible wind actually knocking out power to the venue (they were worried the projector might strain their backup generator and it sure did and the power died as I wrapped up :). The crowd's tech knowledge spanned everything from very casual web use to bloggers and SEO-fanatics, so I started off with a quick review of the basics (e.g.: Web 1.0's one way street vs. Web 2.0's participatory conversation), and then jumped into blogging, social media, search, ecom, and collaboration. We covered a lot in an hour and some people were starting to get a bit of the Information Overload glaze in their eyes, so I wrapped up with an encouragement to take advantage of the wealth of free software and opportunity and get out there and experiment. I'm on the train on the way back to Toronto now, but will post the slides to SlideShare from a more reliable net connection for anyone interested.</p>]]></description>
