Rating: - One of the best energy barsClif bars are top quality in a market over-run with imitators. Also, the company stands by a set of values and supports them. I happen to think they are delicious and it's much easier to get them this way than trying to buy this at the store or paying much more for them one at a time (even with shipping). Rating: - Oatmeal & Raisin Clif BarThe Oatmeal Raisin Clif bar is easy to eat (no preparation), easy to carry, tastes good, and actually holds me over until my next meal. It is a great, low calorie, healthy snack. Clif Bars are priced economically and provide a burst of "sweet" fuel without the fat of cookies or other sweet fixes. Rating: - Yummy!I began buying this product when my husband needed something that was gluten-free. My husband takes them with him when he traveling to tide him over until a meal. I eat one with a glass of milk and they are very filling. It is dense but I liken it to a giant cookie that has a lot less grams of fat than a cookie would. I highly recommend them for kids too! Rating: - Costco a better priceGreat product. Been buying it for years. Found it for $6 a box (same size box)less at Costco. Rating: - Tasty, filling snackCliff bars are a tasty, filling snack. The crunchy peanut butter flavor is one of the better ones. |
Ted Shelton: "Frankly I felt that BlogOn was a waste of time and money."
I think the BlogOn conference was overproduced. In the name of professionalism the organizing firm turned off potential speakers, oversubscribed sponsors, etc.
I would have liked a debatable topic (aside from *blogging = journalism*. Two people slugging it out. Or a devil's advocate taking challenges from the floor.
I would have liked more hard numbers. Facts. Charts. Diagrams. We have the analytic tools to BS-check them; harder on vague opinions and single-points-of-observation.
I found it disturbing how much money was being commanded (from both attendees and sponsors) for a conference at a university. Maybe it was because it was at Berkeley? Maybe we should have taken over a community college or a Cal State or a DeVry. The facilities costs would have been cheaper at least. I heard an organizer apologize and say the next one would be at a hotel, like that would have been better.
Cost wasn't the whole problem. We're at a stage where early adopters are meeting folks who want to leap the chasm. Huge gaps in knowledge, experience, context, culture, vocabulary. It's the gap.
There are huge ideas to be explored, even in the world of applying blogs to media strategy and the enterprise. And most of the big ideas weren't even on the agenda at BlogOn. Probably because it was catering to those who want to commercialize, fund, and otherwise exploit (excuse me, "get in on") the emerging medium.
Let's fork these conferences so advanced topics on business and technology and culture fit the participants.
