I'm one of the keynote speakers, talking about our experience with Hello
>From Earth. Also speaking is are people from Google, SlowTV, Ogilvy
Interactive, Burson-Marsteller and National Australia Bank.

Summary of my talk below, for those interested.

The power of a good idea: The story behind 'Hello From Earth'
*
*In August, the website 'Hello From Earth' was launched by COSMOS to raise
awareness about Science Week. With no advertising, and within just 13 days,
it generated 1.25 million page views, was linked to by 9,000 blogs and
reported in over 1,000 newspapers. How did they do it? Hear Wilson da Silva,
Editor-in-Chief of COSMOS, describe the initiative at the 2009 Social Media
Conference in Melbourne at 11.40am on Wednesday 25 November at the Rydges
Hotel, 186 Exhibition S*t. *


Cheers
