So, two days ago I gave a Popfly demo in Brussels, in the house of the future - aka ‘Living Tomorrow’. The event itself was called ‘Circle of Media’ and it’s in fact an initiative to interact with reps from interactive marketing agencies, key influencers, bloggers and journalists. The idea is to do this in an informal context to present our latest products and technologies. The event is closed by a networking moment where everyone can ask employees anything about the topics (or related products/services). As long as it’s not under NDA, we can talk about it :-)
Objectives :
- Perception change : Microsoft is an open, innovative company
- Increase our circle of influence
- NO top story nor Revenue target.
The Circle of Media intends to prepare Tomorrow
Agenda :
- Visit of the House of the Future

Maarten Schenk from SixApart was there too and captured my little demo. The demo is in Dutch, so I’m sorry if you can’t understand it. Should you have any questions related to PopFly, just drop ‘m in the comments and I’ll get you an answer!
