eBay Live 2008 has come and gone…
What a crazy week it has been! I have so much to tell you about! I’m going to try to make Monday night “Blog Night” so you can hear from me a little more often.
First of all, I had to finish up the work administering the Squidoo-eBay challenge that I told you about in my last post – it brought me over 140 lenses to review and then pick my favorites from to submit to the judges. The judges ended up picking TWO winners for the contest:
Monkees Merchandise by KimGiancaterino
Scott Barnes Cosmetics by belasboutique03
Congrats to them both for their victory!
Then I had to finish packing up for my trip to eBay Live in Chicago, where in addition to the things I was planning on doing (like attending Seth Godin’s presentation), I was part of the Spot the Rock Star contest. Have you ever wondered what it feels like to be swarmed by paparazzi? Well now I know! Check out the video below to see what I mean:
Isn’t that WILD? That was part of my eBay Live experience because I’m part of the OSI Rock Stars community. We were sharing information about the OSI Rock Stars site with eBayers and got lots of goodies to keep and lots MORE goodies to give away, including business cards for a contest. I know we got some new Rock Stars signed up, and can’t wait to see who won the prizes!
eBay Live is also a chance to interact with eBay staff – not only to talk business, but also to have fun – like this video clip of having a little fun with the staff in the Buyer Central booth:
The finale of eBay Live is the Gala, and you enter the Gala through the Clapping Tunnel of eBay staff. If you’ve never experienced it before, I hope this video gives you just a taste of it.
You will be able to check out my Squidoo Lens about eBay Live for all of my pictures and videos from the event in a few days, I’ve just started downloading them and organizing them. For now I have to get caught up on my orders and emails from being away, and get back to knitting as I had three large doll sweater orders come in while I was away!
