> Hey, Sarit!
> When I saw the announcements about a WordCamp in Israel, I just KNEW you
> had to be behind it. Somewhere. Or in front of it.
> I've been trying, but not too hard yet, to get invited as a speaker to a
> conference in Israel so I can come back to visit all my old friends, nosh on
> goodies from the Shuk, hug some shopkeepers I miss, and argue with a few cab
> drivers. So I'm not being subtle when I say that I'd love to find an excuse
> to come back for a visit and turn it into some work.
> If the WordCamp Israel is open to English speaking presenters (my Hebrew
> is not even close to good enough, though I can add a few flippant words
> every once in a while), I'd love to be invited.
> WordCamp covered air fare and hotel for the speakers, and I have plenty of
> places to stay (argh, who to turn down?). If there is any way I could be a
> part of it, and it fits into my schedule, I'd love to put on a show.
> Did you see the amazing video John P did of my presentation in San
> Francisco? I still haven't seen it. I was SO over the top (in my head) as I
> was battling the after lunch timing (the worst time to speak), another
> meeting at the same time (I imagined everyone getting up and walking out
> during my talk), and the fact that none of my books arrived, all bought and
> paid for by a sponsor to give to everyone attending. ARGH! According to
> those at the program and who have seen the video, I was only a little over
> the top. Good.
> I've taught a lot of programs and workshops in Israel while I was living
> there for five years, and I'm sure I can stir up a few of those folks to
> attend without much problem, though I don't think you'll have a problem
> finding an audience. Finding a large enough place to accommodate them might
> be a bigger issue. If you don't have any ideas on that, I might have a few
> for you from all the programs I did.
> And if it helps, tables and chairs will work better than theatre style for
> the WordCamp event. That was a huge mistake in San Francisco, two years in a
> row. Too many people want to live blog and bring their equipment for video,
> recording, and taking notes.
> And maybe we can work to get a sponsor to give my book away to
> attendees...one way or another.
> Ideas, just ideas.
