Say Hi to the Hosk

This article The importance of being Social at eXtreme365 highlights a great point of conferences. We are there to learn, make friends, make contacts and have fun.

So if you are going to the event make sure you make some time to say Hi to the Hosk, I want to meet real life people who I have interacted with virtually through twitter, LinkedIn, blogs etc. I am going to make these people come to life

I will warn you the Hosk is smaller and hairier in real life, try to hide your disappointment #SayHiToHosk
