About: I will be mainly around the web2open space at the Expo floor if you would like to get a hold of me.
~~~~~~
I am deeply interested in increasing the exchange in the European Web 2.0 community, to get to know each other better and help foster relationships.
By trade I am a Tech Implementation Analyst, meaning I look at application, concept and business plans and do deep probing against possible land mines and logical errors, while expanding it with my knowledge of social media and technology as well as business and controlling.
As part of my interest in bringing Germany and the outside together, I am writing for blognation as Editor Germany about German startups and Web 2.0 ventures. As we are interested also in European ventures, feel free to hook me and my colleagues up with information: http://blognation.com
In this Expo I am part of the advisory board as well as organizer of the free unconference during the Expo called web2open. I would be happy to see your presentation during the web2open! Finde more information under http://web2open.eu
Also I am hosting the first Girl Geek Dinner Deutschland on Nov 7th (limited to 70 people), leave a comment under http://girlgeekdinner.de if you like to attend - but note that guys only will be able to attend if you are with a women! ;)

Hi Nicole - I've got some ideas I'd like to share with you. Do you have a few minutes to meet today Wednesday between lectures? Thanks - Allon
hey nicole, we met yesterday briefly, let me know if you have time for a chat! mel
We forgot to exchange the book. Please think of it tomorrow. Thanks, Karin
thanks for the hint for the feed, fixed.
(I will be mostly around the web2open space to be found at the administrational booth near the entrance!)
A few days ago i start a serious small question -
I delete this comment because he was
misunderstood . Im not running for "linkbaiting"
Pardon for that !
Don't know if u're aware of this, but the RSS feed connected to the web2open.eu website seems to be wrong: it links to http://web2open.eu/rss.xml. The right feed is http://feeds.feedburner.com...

Hi Nicole!
We have been in touch by email for Web2Open. Thanks for the great assistance!
We share the same goal to bring Europeans 2.0 together... Maybe we can have a chat to see if there are initiatives we can start together.
THANKS!
Nicole,
knowing how many people you will meet there I will find my slot for a cup of coffee at least
Looking forward!!!
Thomas
Your radar tags mention virtual worlds, and while your profile doesn't it might be good to meet for a chat, as that is definitely among my current interests.
Let me know! :)
David
PS: I am in Berlin on Monday only...
I am so excited about the Girl Geek Dinner and just generally seeing you again.
