    I had NO Idea that this was happening- just so happed that some one canceled a meeting today - and a notification popped up on my iPad.

    I was like WHAT?

    It was GREAT! Ryan Knott (I think was his name) gave lots of practical advice. Also provided references (URLs).

    I have added this to my schedule and will be tuning in weekly.

    Thanks Matt for pushing the INFO out to the world.

    All the best!
