It might sound odd but one of the biggest perks of having my own company is that I get to attend all sorts of cool conference and meet all sorts of cool people.  Every since someone mistook me for Chris Anderson at a Mashable NY mixer, I have been interested in Meeting Chris Anderson. Well, that and WIRED and The Long Tail, of course.  Well, Geoff Livingston turned me on to an upcoming conference in DC on September 29th, GrowSmartBiz Conference.  Of course, Chris isn’t the only luminary attending the event. Of the list of speakers, I know Anita Campbell (@smallbiztrends) and DC’s own Jill Foster (@jillfoster), but the rest look very fine and I hope to meet and enjoy them, too.
