Twitter

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

There’s a new invention out there called “The Personal Home Computer” that, believe it or not, is sweeping the east coast. A lot of people have these “computers” now and it’s probably because it connects to this invisible world called “The Internet” via some magical mystery. Contained within this invisible mystery is a universe called “Twitter”.

Twitter gives you to opportunity to spy on people even though they are completely aware that you are spying on them. I know it seems a bit strange, and to some of you, this comes as quite a shock, but it’s not all bad. Twitter gives you an opportunity to keep up with the latest goings-on with certain events and happenings in people’s lives.

RADIATE has decided to participate in the voluntary voyeuristic experience and you can keep up with all the newest news at twitter.com/RADIATE09.

Also, feel free to follow me (on the internet, not in real life) at http://twitter.com/shelbyabbott

I’m sure you’ll enjoy all the updates on random and mildly important events in my life too.

Hug,
Shelby

Floor Correction

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

Well, after many chastising comments and spurning correction pleas, I will now correct myself.

The Marriott Hotel that we are staying in at the Baltimore Inner Harbor has 32 floors, not anything less!

32 floors of awesomeness. Imagine if you were on that top floor at RADIATE this year…wow. Dream big people!

Hugs,
Shelby

Sneak Peek

Monday, September 21st, 2009

Inner Harbor
I spent the weekend in Baltimore for the annual Sneak Peek weekend. Sneak Peek is an all-frills trip for students that want to be a part of the promotion and recruitment for RADIATE09.

The students got an early look at the amazing new hotel we’ll be in come December, free food, free shirts, free water bottles, free cds and much more. It was a great time with everyone there from the Mid-Atlantic and the hope is that RADIATE will continue to see growth as we travel to a new and better destination this winter.

Above is the view from my room out to the inner harbor…and I was only on the 7th floor. The hotel has 23 floors. Use your imagination to picture what that view would be. No, wait. Don’t use your imagination!; just look around our newly launched website!

We’re Live!

The RADIATE09 website is live and kickin’! I’m excited to be blogging for you here in the hope that you will continue to cyber travel on over periodically and see what the latest info is for RADIATE.

In addition, I’ll do my best to throw in some random entertainment for all of you that choose to be entertained.

I will be your host for the RADIATE09 conference and also for the blog link of this groovy, fetch, roofus, good website.

Talk to you soon,
