A moment of personal exoterica before we launch into the N2Y2 events in San Jose; tonight I'm packing and now all of you are privy to my sundries:

* Laptop w/bag (liveblogging from San Jose)
* Camera (to remember what you beautiful people look like)
* Shoes (never forget the good shoes for dancing)
* Clothes (magenta and red, a fiery feeling)
* Books (any suggestions?)
* AMO Game (always connecting the dots)
* Chocolate (the raw cacao powder this time)
* Hand Cream (see Beth Kanter's tips for liveblogging post)
* I heard I love you! card (ask Jean Russell for more info)
* Virtually Delicious (our Second Life design team cards)
* Saving Grace (a gift for a friend)
* Go Green Guide (playa planning 101)
* Delight (for manifesting good cheer)

I am looking forward to meeting so many of you next week at N2Y2! Britt Bravo has me wrangled to blog during the event and we'll be taking tons of photos and quotes from the innovation sessions. Thanks for keeping the comments flowing so that we're all on the same page sharing tools and information.

For those of you looking for last minute reservations, the Highland Inn in San Jose still has rooms in the $100 range. Let me know if you're interested in carpooling....I need a ride for two passengers from the conference to the B&B on Tuesday evening and a ride back to the event on Wednesday morning.

It's great to see all these blog post intros from folks coming to the NetSquared conference.  We would love to see your shining faces in your posts as well.  (I'm trying to be a role model by including my pic).

Here are some instructions for how to include your photo in your NetSquared blog post:
