Next week, Seattle!
So next week I pack bags (well, a couple of bags because I fly light) and fly out to Seattle for Microsoft Search Champs v4. I was invited (mind you, for the first time), and I must say I’m pretty excited and honored to be a part of it – I must admit I’ve never been the biggest fan of Microsoft’s previous online efforts (as I’ve discussed with Robert Scoble when I was in california), but I am interested in figuring out both what they’re up to, as well as how I can help making it better.
I’m also taking the opportunity to talk to some people I know from Seattle, and those that are not from around but that happen to be there next week. So if you’re going to be in Seattle, drop me an email and lets have dinner or something (my lunches are set to be in Redmond, I believe).
I plan on doing some shopping, and I definitely want to go to the Seattle Public Library – which is one of my favorite architectural projects by Rem Koolhaas. There may also be sort of an impromptu dinner with some well known Web 2.0 people (and members of the workgroup), but I’ll keep you all posted on that. What else is there to do in Seattle next week? Got tips for someone who’s never been? Drop me an email, or leave a comment. Thanks!



I’ve never been either, should be a blast.
See you there!
Best,
Dion
Hi Frederico,
congrats on getting in to Search Champs. FYI other attendees can be found on http://www.ebusiness-strategies.co.uk/news160106searchchamps.htm.
See you there. Matt
The Seattle public library is also second on my list (after Redmond)! I’ve been dying to see it ever since I first saw Koolhaas’s drawings.
See you at Search Champs.
Going to Seattle…
Next Tuesday I fly out to Seattle for Microsoft Search Champs v4. I received an email several weeks ago inviting me to participate and, though I must admit to never having heard of it, after hearing a little about……
I would definately check out the EMP museum and go down to pikes place market. Both are relatively close together. Let me know what kind of things you are looking to do.. and I will see what I can recommend. Our office is also in the downtown seattle area.. so feel free to stop by if you would like.
Fred – you should stop by the co-op and say “hi”. And say “hi” to Brady Forrest and the rest of the MSN Search team. Congrats on getting invited.
Off to Seattle for Microsoft Search Champs…
In a few hours I’ll be on a plane to Seattle, for the Microsoft Search Champs V4. My second trip to the US and my first to Seattle. It’ll be 15.5 hours of flying time from New Zealand (not including……
I’d be interested in tagging along to a web 2.0 dinner.
That was a terrible pun.
We’re still not sure if its going to be possible to do a web 2.0 dinner, because Microsoft is apparently going to take much of our free time. Todays dinner is somewhere on 3rd Ave, and tomorrow, I don’t know.
Still, if there’s a possibility of a web 2.0 dinner, I’ll post about it.
