Cool Hunting

We're super excited around here for our upcoming 99% conference we're putting on with Behance. The two-day affair will be a look at how the inspiring art, design and culture that CH represents comes to be, and how the creatives like those from our roster of speakers maintain their success.

Recently added to the already stacked list of speakers is "The Manipulator" Jill Greenberg, the president of the global nonprofit Echoing Green Cheryl Dorsey and the design director of new media for the Obama for America campaign Scott Thomas. We couldn't be more pleased with how the conference is shaping up, and in our good spirits decided to give away a ticket to one lucky CH reader.

For those who'd rather not take their chances, purchase a ticket on the site—the price (ranging from $190-490) includes the conference, workshops and three parties!

To win, simply go to the bottom of the page, click on Contact and select "99% Giveaway" from the drop-down menu and tell us who your favorite speaker is and why. We'll pick the best answer from the entries received before 11:59 pm EST on 10 April 2009.

None of this would be possible without our conference sponsor Coalesse. We'd like to thank them for all their support. Luckily, you'll be able to check out some of their signature furniture at the event.
