FYI, the X2011 West team is posting this morning and thru the day, a whole series of
video clips from National Train Show.

Go here:   http://facebook.com/x2011west

You don't need a Facebook account to see them, it's setup to be open to anyone.  Enjoy!

There will be about 15 of them arriving during the morning 7/10/11, so if you don't see them
all, check back in a couple of hours

Finally, here's one more of the many photos from X2011 West and National Train Show this weekend
on the X2011 West Facebook page:



The X2011 West Convention is over now.  The X2011 West Facebook page will

I should add that the X2011 West Facebook team's job is far from over.
We are now in the post-convention phase, moderating and facilitating
the many many many post-convention posts, sharing, and recaps that
are swelling the forums and X2011 West Facebook this morning.

All really good stuff and indicative of how much more happened than
any one individual, club, or team could see at X2011 West and
National Train Show, visible to a worldwide audience that couldn't be there,
and as a documentary record that is available online for worldwide
viewing right now while the convention's just 1 day over.

Enjoy that info at:

If you wish to see what I mean. No Facebook account required to see and
observe, you won't be flooded with X2011 West content if
you click on the link above, you'll be just a 'viewer' of the over 340 photos
and 25+ videos and most of all, what others said and discussed about the X2011
West and National Train Show.

We are also in the post-convention learning phase. Valid comments were made about
'hey, how do I opt-in or opt-out from real-time coverage?" We're investigating
how we could do this better next time. We need to make sure all users have
options in Facebook to 'tune down' or 'turn up' or segment coverage.

We'll be reporting on that soon, and making sure that future Facebook
endeavors know how to prep users for giving
them those options as well.

Thx, all, and continue the comments pls!
