Penguin interrupting Legends

As I was walking down the hall one day I happened to spot couple of legends strolling along.
Todd Crawford and Wayne Porter - Both of these men have, among other things, earned the respect of many in the world of Affiliate Marketing.

I had the pleasure of meeting Wayne a few years ago at Affiliate Summit Orlando 2006. He’s a man with an amazing insight and ability to think beyond “outside the box”.

Todd, however, not only had I not had the chance to meet previously… I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t even know who he was. He chuckled when I asked for a card asking “how will I remember who you are”. Little did I know.. eek, tisk tisk, shame on me. I know I get around, but I guess I can’t expect myself to know every human walking the face of the planet. I’m working on it!

Not knowing a big name in business world one lives in… is what happened when one gets into an industry without learning it’s history. I jumped in headfirst and just started swimming.

Sorry Todd - I’ll absolutely know you next time

I didn’t get to chat with these brilliant minds this time around. The event was so busy and so loaded with new faces we were all crazy busy, but I’m glad I ran into them. It was nice to see such accomplished men enjoying a stroll and taking a quick break to breath.

Thanks for the photo, guys!

(see me, I’m tiny on a shoulder… it’s like where’s Waldo again)
