We briefly met at Mesh. My thanks for a great conference. I can honestly say I heard of no complaints in the peanut gallery. Nicely done.

I also wanted to take the time to thank you personally for helping me out at the end of the conference. For those of you who saw an ambulance outside the MaRS building, it was for me - I'm fine now, and I wanted to share with you that Rob was the first person to get everything in order, ensuring that I received immediate medical attention at the MaRS facility. I even received a follow up call from MaRS this morning to see how I was doing, and they were much relieved to hear everything was well. Not only was the mesh conference a great networking and learning environment for creatives, techies and bloggers, it was also a community comprised of people who truly care and reach out to each other. Thank you again and looking forward to next years mesh! Sincerely, Stephanie Ciccarelli http://www.voices.com Hi Rob,
