…I wouldn’t hire him…What does the future of
technology look like?
This would sound great in Latin too…When the attendees
are not there
There is no online community participationin an event
If you are not with meAt the window
We cannot see thetechnology innovations on the outside
Yet within each of usis the light we willencounter on the street
What window? There are no windows here
Really? Really? I mean what is this music?
Are we all supposed to be sleeping now?
Is someone going to speak?
Please…No…Please No one is going to sing!
And they lived happily ever after…
So the story goes…
Social Media solved all industry woes…and more…
