I have been trying to post this for the past two days, but the cold freeze in the Western United States has apparently froze Internet tubes preventing it. Actually I have been traveling four weeks ending with Autodesk University last week so I am catching up on email and other items this week before my next trip starts.

I hope you have recovered from AU 2013 and all the great things you experienced and learned and will try to implement in your office or teach others, follow up with the people you met, and consider new things you thought about and hopefully provoked by a class,  keynote, or an innovation forum.

I know beyond the great keynotes, classes, innovation forums, blogger & social media meetup "BSM360" and meeting many new and old friends, it was ending up with Lynn Allen‘s AU 2013 badge at a reception Thursday night that was one of the fun highlight memories of AU 2013. Lynn said she had wine spilled on her at the customer appreciation party and ditched the badge. Who would have guessed I would have ended up with that badge later that night, and worn it riding a mechanical bull. The look on people’s faces when they looked at the badge I was wearing and realized it was Lynn Allen’s badge was funny and priceless. Thank you to my anonymous friend from San Diego for giving me the badge.

What are your top things you experienced, learned, or people you met at Autodesk University 2013?
