Today was the end of BotCon 2007. I have to say I had so much more fun at the 2007 Convention than I had at the 2003 convention. Much of that had to do with seeing the movie, and much more of that had to do with my confidence in approaching new people and talking to them. I met some very nice folks while I was at the Convention. I also made up some BenSpark cards to give to people that I met. My networking skills are improving and I am happy about that.

Photo-A-Day #813 06/30/07
Today’s Photo-A-Day was taken with my XShot in the dealer room at BotCon 2007. There was a giant statue of Optimus Prime from the Transformers Movie. I had to get a shot of me with Optimus Prime.
Today I am attending many seminars and panels and tonight there will be a concert by Stan Bush (He sing the song The Touch from the 1986 Transformers movie). So I will be busy going and finding out many things about the movie and the toys and lots of behind the scenes stuff.
During one of the panels I met David Willis who writes and draws a webcomic called Shortpacked. He was a pretty nice unassuming guy to meet in person. I like his web comic and told him so. I even gave him one of my BenSpark cards.
I met a few other people and recruited them to help me on a video that I will be releasing soon. I have to get to work on it. I’m not sure if I will have it ready for tomorrow but I certainly hope so.
I picked up a few of the vintage Transformers comics that I was still missing. Only 20 more to go to have the full US run from Marvel. Some prices were good and some were outrageous. Wish me luck finding more.
I took many more pictures and added them to my BotCon 2007 Gallery on Flickr. Enjoy.
