Heather Champ, Flickr’s community management person is going to be in Birmingham in a couple of weeks for Hello Digital. She’s doing one of the Inspiration Sessions and might be doing a talk too.

Yeah, I’ve applied for the Inspiration Session – good news about a potential talk too as I doubt I’ll be one of the chosen few…

Did you manage to get on to the Inspiration Session Jon? Me neither?!?!

I’ve booked tickets for the talk she’s doing next Friday. Think there’s still tickets left, I have spoken to quite a few people who are going though. Probably going to spend the afternoon there for the Pixar talk too. Looks interesting

I have, luckily enough Rob, which is great beacuse I can’t make the talk – tickets going fast I hear.
