WorldCall 2008 Fukuoka Japan



WorldCall 2008 in Fukuoka, Japan has been an incredible experience! I cannot say what was the best part of it.

WorldCall committee and all the people involved were so kind and efficient ! I would like to say thank you to Thomas Robb for his immence patience and kindness, Prof. Akio Iwasaki and Hisako Yamauchi, Mike Levy among others.

Meeting Webheads was fantastic! Most of the awardees were Webheads: Erika Cruvinel (Brazil), Hala Fawzi (Sudan), Neny Isharyanti (Indonesia), Evelyn Izquierdo (Venezuela), Nina Lyulkun (Ukraine), Jennifer Verschoor and I (Argentina). We also met Vance Stevens.

Webheads ladies formed a very nice and noisy group. We laughed a lot and had a great time talking about ourselves, families, work, dreams and projects.

As usual, the best part of conferences is meeting the people.
Your post is good proof of that.

My first Meme (pingback and trackback)

When did I start using Internet? I think it coincides with the economic change in Argentina ( 1 peso = 1 dollar) in the late 90's. I started using e-mailing. I have friedns and family living abroad or in other cities, and they usually complain about the fact that I am pretty lazy for writing letters and going to the post office. So, e-mailing was a solution for me. A really turning point took place in 2001 when I was invited to an on line course on " How to evalute websites" carried out by another Argentinean - Prof. Norma Scagnoli- working at the University of Illinois. She introduced me into the virtual world and there I met one of my dearest cyberfriends: Prof. Dafne Gonzalez. From that moment my virtual life started. I bagan exploring the net and that same year I opened my firs e-group: English Virtual Community. My first steps on the Internet were really awful.
