I managed to survive NYC. Earlier this week I sat on a panel at Likeable U, a social media conference that took place during Internet Week in New York City. I had a chance to tell the Quick Left story, meet a bunch of cool people, and eat, eat, eat.

The conference was well attended and packed quite a bit of material into a single day. The common thread among the advice given by speakers? Focus on being awesome and let others tell the world how awesome you are. We're working hard here at QLHQ to do just that.

A big thanks to Clare from TechStars for asking me to be on her panel along with Kelly, Dan, and Lauren from Kinvey, ChatID, and Shelby.tv, respectively. We had a great time and managed to drop some knowledge along the way.

NYC, thanks for letting me visit. CO, I'm glad to be back.
