Just a quick post for you fellow Brisbanites or anyone willing to travel to Brisbane to come to a blogging conference this Friday (I should be there).
I remember hearing about a conference to be held in Brisbane earlier this year, then it got postponed, then I thought it was cancelled.
Suddenly this morning Des Walsh from the Thinking Home Business blog sends me an email asking if I am attending the event this Friday.
Australian Blogging Conference
To be held at the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, Queensland on 28 September 2007
This will not be a conference in the traditional sense. It will be relatively informal. Instead of lengthy presentations, people will be invited lead discussions on various topics throughout the day – some practical, such as how to build a better blog, and some theoretical on the role, influence and future of blogs.
I was communicating with Peter Black today, one of the event organizers, and if you plan to attend, please give him a shout to let him know.
Will try and catch you there.
I am really looking forward to meeting up with fellow bloggers at this conference, the topics sound very interesting.
Thanks for the reminder, I will see if the boss lets me go or not.
I read about this in the paper and really wanted to go, but i’ll be working
I hope there will be another one on next year, i’d love to go
Yaro
Great that you are coming. And I hope you will be able to help lead the discussion on blog promotion, traffic etc – who else better qualified?!
Fred333 – hopefully the boss will see the business benefit of your being able to pick the brains of the Yaros and Joanne Jacobs and Duncan Rileys and others: this is going to be a really interactive day and I believe a great learning and sharing experience for all of us.
