  1. It has truly been a very productive year. Events will keep on coming and going but it is just nice to hear that this year has closed in a good way. I am excited to see the new list events to jumpstart 2014.

  2. It seems like only yesterday that I found your informational site and now the year is almost over. How time flies when you are being informed! 🙂

    • Haha! It seemed the weekly updates came in quite fast as well. I’m glad to have found this website this year. It truly deserves to be on top of the small business blog list.

  3. The SYMPOSIA::2014 Conference for Women Entrepreneurs in San Francisco looks good. The Green Computing, Tech & Innovation conference in Kuala Lumpar too.

    I think it might be interesting to have updates about some of these events from someone who plans on attending.

  4. Laura: If you are in Gothenburg, Sweden, on March 14-16, check out the (un)conference (potluck) called WebCoast! 🙂

  5. Hi again! I included the right link this time! 😉 Check out the CommonCraft inspired video on WebCoast! 🙂
