Back on the PUG Circuit!

As I write the most recent GigBooks blog post, I’m cruising along at approximately 500 mph and sitting at 26,000 feet in a cozy (and I do mean cozy in a tight sort of way) Canadair CL-65 regional jet.  Oh what fun!

That; however, is not the reason I’m writing.  I’m currently situated somewhere between Philadelphia, PA and Nashville, TN en route to the Nashville PUG meeting where I will present GigBooks to a great group of our fellow Pictage photographers this evening!

It has been a long 4 months since I last set out for a Pictage User Group meeting and a lot has happened in that time.  Since ending the 28 city PUG tour in October, Thanksgiving and Christmas came and went, we crossed into a new year, Amanda and I visited Hawaii (and definitely did not want to leave), Amanda turned 24, oh and way back in November we added the third Kifer Siberian Husky to the family!  That puts me one closer to my dream of a 16 Husky sled dog team!!  Amanda assures me that will never happen, but I say Iditarod, “Here we come!”  

We’ve also welcomed many new photographers, disc jockeys, graphic designers and other professionals to the GigBooks family.  We continue to grow in order to help all of you grow your businesses.

GigBooks has launched quite a few new features in that time, some large and some small, and we are working on a slew of additional features that will launch in the coming weeks and months.  We’re also cooking up a new design and user interface for the GigBooks application per the request of several members.

WPPI is coming up and while Amanda and I will be there to hang out with everyone – we have decided our marketing dollars can be spent better in ways that don’t resemble exhibit booths and no ROI (Return on Investment for anyone not up on their business acronyms).  Fun initiatives like Giggle|TV and other campaigns you’ll start to see in the coming months should keep GigBooks fans happy!

That’s all for now!  Hopefully I’ll catch up with everyone on the other end of Nashville.
