Name Tags Are Conversation Starters

Name Tags at Vancouver IA Summit

I happened to sit by Seth Horwitz, organizer of Philly Net Tuesday. As an Information Architect, I was happy to learn that Seth has a background in library and information science. We waxed poetic about name tags and how we liked ones that have personality and content. "Name Tags Are Metadata" Says Seth. Yes!

He pointed me to his blog post on name tags, and the tags people created at the IA Summit in Vancouver.
Maybe at next year's NetSquared conference...

really great ideas

Billy,

Thanks so much for sharing this post. It is really, really smart. I've done this here and there with my nametags but I have never thought this much about it. I appreciate the sharing of shared insight. 

I relinked it over at our live-blog.
