On Tuesday night, a small group of us had the pleasure of having dinner with Joseph Jaffe, one of the world’s top new-marketing bloggers/podcasters. He’s president of Crayon, and wrote the bestselling “Life After the 30 Second Spot“.
During the dinner he wanted to give someone a signed a copy of his just-released book called “Join the Conversation” (which he’d brought to SA for his mom!), but has instead dedicated it to the Cape Town blogging and podcasting community to be passed around.
The inscription says:
“To the wonderful Cape Town community, I’m proud to represent you in the big US of A and I hope this book inspires, motivates and reflects the power of us“.
I’m almost done reading it, so if you’d like to get it next (and you’re in Cape Town) then just write a blog post mentioning the words “Join the Conversation” and then let’s meet for coffee and I’ll pass it on to you:)
One of the cool things about the book is that Chapter 10 was written by a bunch of people interested in the subject using a wiki. Interestingly, if you feel compelled to write more about it, you can become a contributor on the official blog by registering yourself there.
Glen from the ZA show has posted a video of the dinner here.
What day suits you?
You’re on:) Wednesday at Aris?
Can I get it after EE!?
Hey Joey, you’re on. It’s a damn fine book, worth the wait I reckon.
let Joey skip ahead of me in the Q as i’ll only be back in CT in 2 weeks time
Perfect:) Joey, lets do coffee!
Cheers Eric! Dave, seeing you tomorrow – JM invited me to some lunch thing, let’s chat there and set a date.
Ah, grand! Looking forward to it!
