Seed Conference: January 18th, 2008 Recaps – Overview

Filed under Industry, Seed by Chad | 2 comments


I attended the January 18th Seed Conference at IIT in Chicago with John Feser, one of the partners from the company I work for, The Iona Group. The three speakers, Carlos Segura, Jason Fried and James Coudal all gave informative sessions with Q&A following. I’ll attempt to do a brief recap on the sessions for my personal records (one post for each speaker), as well as for those that may have attended the conference or are thinking of attending one in the future. Overall the sessions were insightful, memorable, funny and candid. I applaud the three of them for being so open and transparent, often offering very frank views of their inside operations and thoughts on the web design/application/creative industry and the associated perils.

These recaps are just that, only excerpts. For the fully leaded, unadulterated web 2.0-y goodness, you simply must attend one of these yourself. Here’s to hoping that these three trend-setters are starting yet another trend, telling it like it is, even when it’s not always pretty.

If you attended the conference and want to share your experiences, please use a pingback so I can track your thread… If you have questions about the content, drop me a line or comment in the respective post.

    thanks for the updates, very succinct and informative. coming from my background, i have always thought “process” was very key. i now believe that’s it’s having a great group of like-minded people who all are committed to a core group of beliefs and values. then good process helps.
