Hey folks, here are some pictures I took at the conference, I thought you’d like some “visual gratification” instead of having to read, and pictures can give you a pretty good idea of the “vibe” of the conference, so here it is! :)

Huge special thanx to Liz Strauss for all she did, the efforts, the passion and the blogging love! You’re amazing Liz!

So, yep, i’m back! Will post new articles/stuff tomorrow, as soon as i’m done catching up on e-mails, messages, IMs and all that! Take care!

Hey Dawud, nice blog you have!

Hey Phil, was great meeting you! You’re one positive guy, keep the smiling and positivity high man! Talk to you soon!
Hey you! Looks like a great time! And wow - you’re a real cutie! :)
Btw, I took your advice and got my own domain. I’ve transferred all the posts and comments, but still have a lot of work to do on the site. Check it out!
Hope to chat with you soon!
Hi Tish, hehe thanx!
I just left a comment on your blog, wow, awesome job! Of course if you ever need any help, you know you can count on me! :)
Hey you! :D
Can you send me a copy of the one with you and I together? Although I like it a whole bunch, I think my favorite photo is the one where Dawud looks like he’s stoned out of his mind! (LOL!)
Hi Wendy, i’ll send you the pic right after leaving this comment hehe
I agree with you, this pic of Dawud is awesome! I uploaded my SOBCon07 pics at:
http://www.smartwealthyrich.com/images/sobcon07/
and i made some thumbnails with a little drop shadow thing, so if you want you can use that to link to the pics or something :)
Hey Jonathan, thanks for the mention. You rock dude! Too much metal for one hand \mm/
Like you, just got back last night, so a lot of catching up to do… nice site by the way :)
I’ll be spending some time reading and looking around your site now that I know your URL.
Hey Sean, you rock! Thanx for the nice words! I’ll be checking out yours more also. By the way i got your e-mail, and replied :)
Take care, keep the metal up!
This was a fantastic event. Thanks for the pics Jonathan!
Hey Easton, this was definitely an amazing event! will be there next year for sure!
Johnathan, I was glad I got a chance to chat with you (even if it was so very briefly). Thanks so much for joining us in Chicago!
Hi Chris, was really nice meeting you, even though we didn’t get to talk a lot, i have to say you did a really great job with the A/V and all! Thanx for stopping by my blog! really appreciate it! Take care
[…] conference, not a blogging conference. Jonathan at SmartWealthyRich.com has posted a slide show in SOBCon07 - Pictures and Link Love, along with links to all the sponsors, speakers, and […]
You know what Jonathan, doing something like this in Montreal next year would be awesome :)
Hey Kiltak! Yeah that would be awesome! Liz and Chris Cree told me it’s a lot (A LOT) of work to prepare an event like this, but we could do something similar, would be awesome! :)
Thanks for posting the pictures, Jonathan. This conference, and the follow up images and articles show the use of the web at its finest.
Hi Rick, totally agree, everyone posting about the conference is proof it was a real success. I’m extremely i was a part of it! :)
By the way, for the pictures, i uploaded some at: http://www.smartwealthyrich.com/images/sobcon07/ and made some thumbnails/drop-shadow thing, so people can use them if needed! :)
Jonathan!
What fun! it was a wonderul memory of what happened while we were there! Wow!
Hi Liz, wow! I just can’t find the words to express exactly how much i enjoyed the week-end (hehe that’s why i put up this splashcast thing)! I was so happy to finally meet you! You’re a gem! :)
Was great meeting you and hanging out for a bit. I’m not sure why every picture of me shows me with a beer in my hand or nearby…hmmm…
Hey Ben, i had a blast, was awesome meeting you! And you podcasting presentation was excellent!
haha ,yeah it’s true, i guess Montrealers like to drink :) (Heineken please)

Jonathan! Thanks for taking the time to meet with me at SOBCon — it was great to find a fellow Mac user and someone with a classic Titanium Powerbook! :-)
I went ahead and used your great list of attendees in my own follow-up post on SOBCon07 — thanks for taking the time to compile that.
So when are the Canadians going to start planning SOBCon Canada? I want to come! :-)
Hi Mike! Thanx for stopping by! Mac user all the way! :) (that titanium powerbook is a pain sometimes though, the display is kinda fading, and the airport card acts weird but i love this comp)
sobcanada.com, got the domain name, Liz told me it’s a lot of work putting up a conference like this together, but i’ll see what i can do, it would really be awesome! I’ll keep you posted, let’s keep in touch! Take care
