I’ve been excited about the upcoming Lotusphere event for some time now. I often tell people that its the best “one stop shop” to catch up on all product announcements, resources, business partners, new tricks/tips, best practices… you get the idea. The community aspect of the event shouldn’t be overloooked as well. I’ve made a lot of great contacts by attending this event each year and it amazes me how helpful that is as I go about doing my job. I also think that the choice to hold it at Walt Disney World is brilliant. The layout, facilites and even the WDW community itself (’cause let’s face it, the resort is a community) helps add to the x-factor that makes Lotusphere so great.
If you’ve attended this event before, you know exactly what I’m talking about. And, if you’ve attended and stayed at a Disney resort hotel, then you are probably familiar with their “Top 7 Must See’s” TV show (YouTube video of someone recording that video). Its a 30 minute long commercial featuring a good list of great places to eat, shop and attractions to see at the WDW resort.
Some of you might also know that I spend some of my free time working on a Disney fan site/podcast of sorts. The fact is, I’ve been to WDW more times than I can remember; so I’ve seen that video more times than I care to admit. Which prompted myself and my younger sister to put together the video below a long time ago:

I’m bringing my kids for a few days of Disney park fun before the conference. They’ve both been several times before, but the last time was 2001 (or maybe 2002… hard to remember).

I actually have been a Netcot listener for a couple of years and found this blog through there. I’ve been a certified Notes geek since ‘96 and a Disney geek all my life. Which is why I have been desperately trying (unsuccessfully) for 13 years to get to Lotusphere. Oh well, maybe next year.
