The First (and Only) Time Traveler Convention was a bust! :(

Sadly, it appears that the First (and Only) Time Traveler Convention was a bust. According to Rocketboom Boston field reporter Steve Garfield, "Well, the time came and went for the time travelers to arrive here at MIT, but we're still not sure if they actually showed up."

Doesn't mean that they were't there -- just that they blended in rather well if they did.

Which, of course, they could, being possessed of vastly superior technology.

Me personally, I think they were there.

Just laying low, like a bunch of blue state guys at a red state picnic...

Hi George! Yep, I was at Apple from 94-97. Three CEOs in three years. Was it something I said?

Anyway, no idea where to pick up an iSight webcam. Aren't your friends at eBay just salivating to help you out?

And you're my first comment in a while (other than spam :), but HARDLY the first. Most comments I've gotten (gut feel, vs. counting) were on my Lost in Translation movie review.

See ya!

I haven't commented in a while but I'm still checking your blog every weekday! I even directed someone else to our LiT discussion the other day.

Hi Jeff, I am from Backbone Media, an Internet marketing company based in the Greater Boston area. While searching the web for bloggers who work for companies and blog about their company’s products and services, I found your blog.

Blogging is all about starting online conversations about a particular topic. Backbone Media is attempting to understand the value of blogging for companies, to build a model of what makes a good business related blog. We asked ourselves the following questions to start that conversation about corporate blogging:

· What is the value of corporate blogs?
· Who blogs in a company?
· What can it bring to the company?
· What makes a corporate blog successful?
To find answers to these questions, we are reaching out to bloggers at companies by conducting a survey for corporate bloggers. We were inspired in part by the corporate blogging survey conducted last year on the The NewPR Wiki week.

We want to get your feedback on corporate blogging, and after the survey closes, we will understand more about corporate blogging and we will publish and send you the complete results.

If you’d like to remain anonymous, it is not necessary to fill out the contact information. However, if you would still like to receive the results of the survey, please email us at bloggingsurvey@backbonemedia.com and let us know. Since you will have filled the survey out anonymously, we will not associate your contact information or company with your survey responses.

We’d really appreciate the bloggers taking our survey. It can be filled out here: http://www.backbonemedia.com/blogsurvey/

You can contact me directly at kristine@backbonemedia.com or contact our blogging survey team at bloggingsurvey@backbonemedia.com

Thanks!
Kristine
