So… i hear these are going to be moving over to the Ignite Waterloo site (i’ll update these links when that happens) but in the meantime, if you’re interested… here’s my Ignite Talk. Prepare to be annoyed. hahahaa.
My favourite moment is at 2:50.

So??? What do you think?
It’s a work in progress, but we think it’s looking good!
Couple things that are on their way:
- A Page for Cinq a Sept
- Direct Links to Ideas Transform, The One Hundred and Cinq a Sept
- The Local Guide section built out with more things
- Some local advertising that is non-offensive
Send me your thoughts – hilary(at)RQmagazine(dot)com
I’m psyched about it. Tell your friends.

PS> many many many many thanks to Kevin at Monster Farm for not murdering me. Thanks Kevin, looks sweet.

As you know, I’m going to be giving an Ignite talk about Blogging on Wednesday.
It looks like some of you are going to be there – can i ask for your help with something?
Karl from Cute Gecko gave me the great idea to do a little experiment during my talk.
So here’s what we’re going to do to show the crowd how unbelievably powerful a community that reads common blogs can be:
During my talk (near the end) i’m going to show THIS picture:
When I do… could you please Howl at me?
I know it’s a little bit awkward to howl in a crowd… but trust me – it’ll be sooooooooooooo good.
Will you do it???
Will you?
Pretty please with a cherry on top?
If you don’t… i’ll look like an idiot… which i am ok with. kind of.
hahahahaha.
Fingers Crossed.

Oh man, it’s an action packed week at RQ!
Let’s start things off!
On Saturday, P and I stopped in at Value Village for a quick look around. I tried on a couple things and bought a shirt and a pretty sweet equestrian inspired belt. I also tried on a genius of a dress that looked bad on me due to lack of height.
I bought it anyways… and thought we could auction it off here, on RQ!
Here’s the details:
- Size 9/10
- Black
- From Banana Republic
- Wool/Cotton Blend (very soft fabric)
- Scoop neck, three buttons and cinching around the waist.
- Very new.
- If you’re 5′5ish, it’ll come to just above your knees i think.
- ALL PROCEEDS WILL GO TO: doctors without borders.
So here’s the deal, the dress is gorgeous, perfect for work, or even over skinny jeans i think.
If you’d like to call it your own, make a bid in the comments.
Don’t forget to leave your name.
Bidding starts at $15, and will go on until Wednesday at 3pm EST.
(If you win the dress, and it needs to be shipped to you, i will cover the cost of shipping)
Any questions,
leave a comment.
Let the bidding begin!
H.
PS. Many thanks to Greg for the inspired idea.
