Yesterday Word Camp Miami was held at the University of Miami School of Communications. It was great to meet so many talented people that I have seen on twitter.   Here are some pictures from the event and after party. Robert Dempsey (@nonmarketer) posted some detailed notes from the event. I was impressed with the wealth of knowledge from all the presenters.
