The #140conf will be returning to the 92nd Street Y on June 19-20, 2012, where we will once again be exploring "The State of NOW."

This event is expected to be the largest worldwide gathering of people interested in the effects of the real-time Internet on both business and "me" the people. The 2012 event website is:http://nyc2012.140conf.com

As people's voices continue to be heard worldwide, and as we in the States will be entering the final lap of a US Presidential election cycle, the theme for our 2012 event is "Finding and Sharing Meaning."

If you are interested in having your voice heard at #140conf, please submit your speaking proposal over at: http://140conf.com/call-for-speakers - Only passionate people need apply. The deadline for speaking proposals is: February 3, 2012. The first people to submit will be the first considered for the speaking opportunity.

Also, if there is someone you are friendly with and whom you would like to nominate as a speaker, please feel free to do so.

Looking forward to receiving and reviewing the 2012 speaking proposals.
