The 99% Conference Summary

Thursday, April 30th, 2009 | 1 Comment »

I recently visited New York City for a conference about “Making Ideas Happen”. The 99% Conference, stressed that their conference wasn’t about ideas, but about making them happen.  There were some amazing speakers and I wanted to share what they wanted to teach us.  NoDejaVu.com has some amazing summaries and here is just a tid-bit, go ahead and read more about all the 99% Conference coverage.

“The Obama campaign, was the first to fully integrate web and print design as a whole for more consistency. The process was an ongoing work and as he explain: “We were truly making an airplane while on flight.” The website changed a lot since the first launch, but they really needed to get it up and running. It was in constant evolution. During this campaign, it was very important to deliver a clear and consice message and keep sending the message of hope. The team gave the feeling like Obama was already President.”
