140TC – The Twitter Conference

by Randy Stewart on September 29, 2009

in Conferences, Photos, Twitter

I was down in LA for the Twitter Conference, 140TC, last week. The conference was slated to be the intersection of Hollywood and Silicon Valley, which might be two of the weirdest places on earth. The conference didn’t disappoint. I mean, where else could I meet Tony Robbins, The Iron Sheik and Biz Stone, all on the same day?

Huge thanks to conference organizers, The Parnassus Group (and my pal, Jason Preston) for putting this fantastic conference together.

Needless to say, I snapped a few pix that I’ve posted below. Naturally, there are more on Flickr.

What do you do with all those photos?

September 15, 2009

What do I do with all those photos? This is a question that I frequently get asked from folks at events I photograph.
At the last Ignite event, I took 1600 photos and posted 46 of them (just about 3%). Not all of the unposted photos were duds, but they weren’t as [...]

Gnomedex 9 Recap in Photos

September 4, 2009

Filed under: better late than never.
Gnomedex 2009 marked my 4th Gnomedex and it seems that they get better every year. Gnomedex has always made me think in ways I hadn’t thought, meet people I had not met and do things I wouldn’t otherwise do. I view going to Gnomedex as a kind of [...]

My Photos Have Gone Big Time

August 19, 2009

When I edit my photos, I view them on a 24″ monitor full bleed. Once I’ve picked the photos I’m going to use, I upload them to Flickr where they are chained for eternity at 500 by 333 pixels. Sure, you can go to the bigger size, but Flickr doesn’t really encourage it.

New Cards

August 17, 2009

Ordered my new “personal” business cards last week from Moo.com. This time around I decided to go with a Stewtopia branded fruit flavor theme to match the stick of gum that these cards resemble.
Hopefully, they’ll arrive before Gnomedex this weekend.

Add lots of keywords to Lightroom quickly

July 13, 2009

I discovered a quick and dirty keywording method in Lightroom that has improved my workflow a great deal. Keywording photos makes it easier to find them later in Lightroom and better yet, if you are sharing your photos on Flickr, it will make your photos infinitely more findable for anyone who is searching.
Easy Tagging
