Blog Conferences Galore!

There are social media, blog, and Web 2.0 conferences galore. It's like the California Gold Rush and like that event, the blogging infrastructure providers, including conference organizers, will be among the winners. A few miners got rich but the vast majority did not.

At the Blog World Expo in Vegas (Nov. 8-9) you can take your chances on getting good workshops after you put your money down. With limited space at the good sessions, it is indeed a gamble.

A better bet seems to be the Executing Social Media Conference in Atlanta Nov. 14-15. Pricey for students even after the big discount but you know what you will get to hear and that you will be able to interact with substantial industry people.

My excursion to Atlanta last week to learn about Iridium satcom left me with lots of information but many new questions about the data service.
