BlogHer Opens Their "Call for Ideas" ---Blogging While Brown Update

BlogHer '09 In Real Life
I know many of your are amazing speakers and panelists from attempting to wrangle you on the podcast wach week. Well don't hide your talent and perspective under a rock. BlogHer, one of the charter sponsors of Blogging While Brown is holding a "Call for Ideas". You can nominate yourself or someone else you think might make a great panelist. Being a conference panelist is fun and a great way to meet people. I find myself on a panel every month.

You need to send the following information to BlogHer by November 24, 2008:
- Who you are and why you want to speak
- Which of our tracks you'd like to participate in, and your experience/expertise/knowledge/perspective about that subject
- Specific links that highlight that experience/expertise/knowledge/perspective
- Your contact information and a link to your blog(s)
- Who else you think should be contributing

You can go here to the BlogHer site to read more. Don't be shy. Nominate yourself or someone else that you think would be a great speaker. BlogHer will be in Chicago, July 23-25, 2009 at the Sheraton

One thing I have learned is that if you want to take your blog to the next level, you HAVE to get out from behind the keyboard. A one minute conversation can change your life. I have yet to attend a blogging conference that I didn't meet someone or learn something that was well worth the trip.

I'm definitely there this time...especially if it's in Atlanta!

PLease oh please don't let it be in July...(crossing my fingers)

@gem2001: agreed! Going to conferences and meetups lets me know what other perspectives are out there and make even stronger connections. Nothing beats face-to-face.
