A hearty thank you

As I said on Saturday, a big thanks to all our panelists, and everyone who turned out for the conference itself.

But we couldn’t have done it without the help of these fine people, who - it’s worth noting again - all worked for free:

Our Web designer/tech god: Stephen Schmidt at robotstephe.com, without whom we would have been unable to prove we were a force to be reckoned with;
Our site runners: Kate Gardiner, Joe Germuska, Sophia Madana, Jenni Prokopy, Justin Sondak, Anna Tarkov, and Erin J. Shea;
Our audio/video crew: Fuzzy Gerdes and Erica Reid (videographers), Shannon Heffernan (audio), Sam Prus (video editor)
Our guest bloggers: Josh Andrews, Shawn Campbell, Keidra Chaney, Charlie Meyerson, Whet Moser and Tracy S. Schmidt;
Our live-bloggers: Marcus Gilmer of Chicagoist and Matt Wood of Wood-Tang.com;

And finally, a big thank-you to our food sponsor, Ramon De Leon, operating partner at Domino’s Pizza, who stepped in at the last-minute to feed everyone during the break. Check out his Twitter stream at twitter.com/dpzramon.
