University Center, Chicago, IL
It is my pleasure to announce that Blogging While Brown 2009 will take place June 19-20, 2009 at University Center in Chicago, IL.We’re using Eventbrite again this year to handle registration. REGISTER FOR THE CONFERENCE. We’re excited to announce that we’ve added a pre-conference intensive workshop called the Beginning Blogger Boot Camp. This pre-conference session is aimed at attendees who do not currently blog, but would like to learn how.
Housing
As you can imagine, housing in downtown Chicago during the summer can be somewhat pricey. Blogging While Brown remains committed to attempting to make attendance as affordable as possible. Although many hotels are available in downtown Chicago, we’ve also reserved rooms at the University Center for those attendees seeking a more affordable option.
During the school year, University Center serves as a state-of-the-art student residence, that opened its doors in the fall of 2004. Located in the heart of Chicago’s Educational Corridor, University Center is just steps from Columbia College Chicago, DePaul University and Roosevelt University, the triad that formed this unique facility. Designed as a multi-institutional community specifically for college students from local neighborhoods and around the world.

Woo Hoo. This is great. I love Chi-town. I got much family there and will make sure to do a book reading in the city a few days before the conference.
Everybody loves Chicago for their conferences. You are showing all of us how to get things done.
I am looking forward to being at the conference. Chicago seems like the place to be for conferences.
I guess my family will finally get to see me again. I hate Chicago. I love the food though! Italian Fiesta and Harolds Fried Chicken here I come! Is Lems bbq still open? I better start my diet now!
I really like your blog.. I am adding it to my list of educational, funny & interesting reads.
Keep up the great work!
I’d like to discuss the idea and possibility of being a media partner for this event with you . I host radio & tv tech shows and have a presence on Chicago radio and nationally on XM. I;d like ot see how we can help you get the audience you are looking for. I’d also love to have you on as a guest and maybe we cold even look at the possibility of broadcasting live from the event.
Great choice!!!
Ye-ey!! Welcome to Chicago! I look forward to meeting many of you.
GREAT

I will be crashing at my man Deeda’s house, the best person I know who can cook (he can’t beat out my wife, mom and dad though) the best vegetarian meals in the universe
might even play some capoeira…
I once ran smack-dab into that giant post in the middle of the photo.
