Wikis, podcasts, desktop sharing....what's a person to do? Global California had many of the answers at their annual conference in Sacramento recently. This conference was an abundance of useful and practical information for importers and exporters, not just in California, but all over the US. I went as an exhibitor for Trade Bridge and spent most my time listening to an A-list line up of experts and service providers assembled by Tony Livoti and his team at the Monterey Bay International Trade Association. Highlights of the topics covered include using Web 2.0 tools to collaborate on product development with overseas partners, practical suggestions for marketing on the web, translation/interpretation/localization, sourcing and researching online, new developments in online security that can be applied to international collaboration, and an eCommerce source for pre-shipment funding. Just listening to these folks talk about the internet resources available to importers and exporters had me want to start exporting something!

Thanks for the kind words about the conference. It was a pleasure presenting there and I'm glad to see you got something out of it. I hope the mass of information wasn't too overwhelming.
