Did you know that beyond this web site, our Twitter and our Facebook group we also release a FREE print annual in partnership with Discorder Magazine? Did you know that we also have two different weekly bits that air on the radio with 100.

Did you know that beyond this web site, our Twitter and our Facebook group we also release a FREE print annual in partnership with Discorder Magazine? Did you know that we also have two different weekly bits that air on the radio with 100.5 FM The Peak and CKNW 1130 AM? And that we're soon releasing a fun app and we're dreaming up/planning a handy mobile version of our site? It's true, Vancouver Is Awesome is an evolving piece of the transmedia puzzle and it would only make sense that we'd not only be excited about the Merging Media conference happening on October 27th and 28th, but that we'd encourage you to check it out if you also find yourself as one of these many pieces.

Merging Media 2011 is being billed as a place where the top innovators of conventional and interactive media collide, and because it's a little hard to pin down what transmedia actually is (as Tom Hastings from CBC says in THIS clip from Toronto Merging Media event) I'm going to be attending Merging Media and bringing you the scoop! It's not often that we blog specifically about the mediums that we use to get our positive message to all of you but as they collide, and as we happily collide with others, it is a story worth telling.

Below is an intro to the conference, visit the Merging Media WEB SITE to learn more, register, etc, then stay tuned for my full report.
