That’s right, I won’t be there to liveblog the latest edition of “battle decks” at DemoCampVancouver04. Why not? Well, I’ll be somewhere between Iowa and Missouri, visiting in-laws and driving through some corn fields, that’s why.
John hasn’t been back to see his family in over two years since immigrating to Canada to be my man, so we’re pretty darn excited to be going for Thanksgiving. While we’re away there are two super cool social media events happening in Vancouver that I will be missing out on.
Third Tuesday: We’ve only attended one Third Tuesday event since they started in Vancouver but are looking forward to another next month. This time around however, Tod and Tanya have rustled up some interesting presenters, all on the topic of PR using social media: Phil Evans from 95Crave, Steve Palmer from 76Design, and Jo-Anne Stayner of High Road Communications.
What: Third Tuesday Vancouver - PR / Networking Event
When: Tuesday November 20, 2007 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm
Where: The Shore Club
More Info: Available on the Facebook Event page or the official Third Tuesday Vancouver site.
DemoCampVancouver04: Since I won’t be there to live blog, I’ll be looking around for recap information upon my return so if someone has such a write up, please leave a note in the comments and I’ll hook up some link love.
What: DemoCampVancouver04 - Mini demo/pitching unconference with battle decks, products, and demos a la Dragon’s Den but with a soft social media community flare.

Luckily we’ll be back in time for MobileCampVancouver [Facebook][Wiki] and Launch Party with a Twiist *phew*. Looking forward to many more social media events in this town, you gotta love it!
