Age of Conversation 2 ... is GO!

Dear readers... it's been a long time since I posted and I'm really sorry about it. Well, this is just because I was too busy... errrrrr... waiting for the launch of the :
age of conversation 2 - why don't they get it ? ... of course!

Here it is, so fresh, so new... out of the now famous "Drew McLellan's and Gavin Heaton's Magic Worldwide Publishing Enterprises LTD (for Literally Totally Dedicated) and Co (for Co-authors)". Get ready to read and engage conversation(s) around the ideas of the 237 different sources spread all over the planet who collaborated to the writing of this book.

  
8 chapters regroup several topics ready to challenge your thoughts:

• Manifestos 
• Keeping Secrets in the Age of Conversation
• Moving from Conversation to Action?
• The Accidental Marketer
• A New Brand of Creative 
• My Marketing Tragedy
• Business Model Evolution
• Life in the Conversation Lane

Just in the same spirit as the good ol' original -yet almost vintage collector- AoC, all the benefits will go to Variety, the Children's Charity.

My first contribution to the AoC was "The Dawn of Shared Consciousness" where I linked the evolution of the way people communicate today -from a Darwinian perspective- to the revolution businesses will have to face. Now, the title of my new chapter is "The Superheroes of Action" and could be described briefly as a path from shared consciousness to human values.

Come on... why wouldn't you get it... well I mean... get one? Time to just click HERE and go buy your copy. And if you ordered a printed version and don't know what to do besides looking through the window while waiting for the silhouette of your best friend, Mr. Mailman, why don't you check the blogs of the authors? Full of  brilliant ideas and definitely all about conversation. - Let's not forget to THANK both Drew and Gavin for giving us all the honor to contribute to this great human adventure.

[Gavin Heaton]

Am I seeing double? Double trouble more like.
Thanks for being part of this great, global project. It would not have been the same without you ;)

[C.B. Whittemore]

Luc, your chapter sounds wonderful and I can't wait to read it. Thanks for getting the word out about AOC2, the most amazing collaboration ever!

[Drew McLellan]

Luc,

Gavin's right -- it would not have been the same without you. So glad we can share this together as well.

Thanks for helping us get the word out and raise the $15K we're aiming for.

And CB is wise to be anxious to read your chapter!

Drew
