I'll be there! I'll be trying to blog and twitter there often as well. I'm also setting up a ScribbleLive account so my blog will be updated throughout the day with my tweets. This will be my first time trying this out. I am just now trying to figure out what all I will take - what my gear bag will look like. Here's the current thoughts:
Gear List for Orange:
1. MacBook Pro - it’s a 17”, which is nice, but it’s a BEAST to use at conferences! (plus extra battery) I expect to use this between sessions/breakouts, if I use it at all during the day.
2. iPhone (with RichardSolo extended battery) - my primary blogging/twittering tool for the conference
3. Digital Camera with Eye-fi - it’s a decent one that takes great video too! Plus, it automatically uploads pictures to my Smugmug account and computer.
4. Steno Pad & Pen - my primary means of note-taking. A little “old-school”, but it’s often a little tough to use a 17” laptop as an actual “laptop” and take notes.
5. Nalgene Water Bottle with Kool-Aid - never go far with out it :)
6. Flip Ulta HD (optional) - it’s small, but do I need it?
If you are interested in following my adventure you can follow me on twitter or on my blog:

But don't just follow me - or, should I say, don't follow me at all? There are a ton of people who have the gift of blogging and writing that will be there. I tend to think in short bullet points and am an internal processor = not the best qualities for a blogger :) !!
I think it's gonna be a hard time keeping up with everything as it looks like there will be a lot of tweeting and blogging going on as they even set up a separate bloggers lounge.
Bloggers Lounge
If you want to see some people who will be there, CoffeeWithChris just posted a list of a bunch of bloggers and twitterers that will be at the Orange Conference:

Choose one, two or several to follow. It looks like you can almost be there, by just following everyone!

I just got my mind blown by Francis Chad. Here are my thoughts. Totally random and not spell checked.

Wonder how messed up I'll be after this week?
