International Webgrrls Day is Friday
From: Jill Newbold <jill@newboldsolutions.com>
I'm getting the word out about this year's International Webgrrls Day. The
date is Friday, October 22. The time is 6:00 - 9:00 pm and we're holding
the event at Oxford University Press - the location of all of our regular
monthly meetings.
FOLLOW YOUR PASSIONS TO A WEB CAREER
Our keynote speaker will be our very own webgrrl - Linda Watson of
E*Garden. Linda's talk will focus on doing what you love and translating
that to a web-based business. She'll leave plenty of time for questions
after imparting her wisdom at our gala event.
Linda's bio: Linda Watson is president and founder of E*Garden, an
e-commerce site at http://www.egarden.com. She founded E*Garden to make it
easy for garden lovers to find interesting plants, garden art and
garden-related books, tools, and events. In May, Linda sold E*Garden to
U.S. Home & Garden and began transforming the site into a wholesale site
with both fixed-price sales and auctions.
Linda is an avid gardener who volunteers at the J.C. Raulston Arboretum and
grows Voodoo Lilies and Flying Dragons at home. Prior to starting
E*Garden, she created the conversation engine for Douglas Adams' game The
Starship Titanic and was the executive product manager for Tom Clancy's
SSN, a submarine strategy game. She has also worked for the large (IBM)
and the secret (The Institute for Defense Analyses).
