2010 HOW Conference Portfolio Review

I was fortunate enough to get into the portfolio review that's held at the HOW conference every year. It fills up fast and I think some even got turned away that were registered.

Nevertheless, I wanted to challenge myself by putting my work up against the work of others working in my field, and  also under the scrutiny of some of our professions best. I have to say I was pretty damn nervous about the whole affair (ie ready to hurl).

I made it to the review though, and had overwhelmingly positive feedback. It was a great experience and I recommend it to anyone who ever gets the chance to attend a HOW conference.

Anyway, I thought I would share a PDF copy of what I put together.  So, here it is. It's as small as I could compress it; so I hope you have a decent connection.

Look for my post later in the week about my overall experiences at this year's conference. It was a great one.

More later this week...
