The magic behind Toronto Talks

Thu 29 Apr 2010 23:01:45 | 10 comments

Let’s start at the beginning. TorontoTalks is the brain child of four creative individuals that have bound together to create this new communication space and movement. These inspired folks met at the 2009 IABC World Conference in San Francisco, CA and immediately jumped into amazing conversations and debate. Luck was with them and the conversation turned into ideas and a plan. But none of this was possible without one special person, Linda Johannesson, who created a tweetup and wrangled us all together. Over the last ten months as we've chatted, shared and created, our passion and friendship is now tenfold.

I now introduce you to The TorontoTalks Crew.

Linda Johannesson / Sydney, Australia, is a strategist, marketer, communicator, brand champion, blogger and social media advocate who believes in communities and conversations. Her 20 years of expertise spans integrated branding and marketing campaigns, change management, web site, blogs, wikis and other social media.

A guy who whispers in your ears, saying ” It’s alright, I’m here.” Holds you when you’re sad, and treasures everything about you. That’s the guy I want to give my heart to.
