A FREE one-day blogging conference, Blog Carolina, will be held in Research Triangle Park, NC (Raleigh-Durham area) on Friday, May 9, 2008. If you can be there, I recommend that you attend. Even if it's just to meet yours truly
If you're on Twitter, it's recommended that you sign up as a "Twitterer" instead of attendee because "Updates and logistics about the event will be tweeted by @blogcarolinas. You will be asked to spread the word to the folks in your immediate vicinity."
Pretty cool. I better get a phone that's better suited for Tweeting than my Motorola Razr (or just take my laptop!). The agenda will feature "central gatherings" for everyone in attendance as well as seminars broken down by topic and time. Here are those sessions:
Tracks | Marketing & Communications
|
Community Enterprise
|
Learning Lab
|
Geek Conversations
|
9:00 Sessions | On-Line Reputation | Talent | Blogging | Privacy and Identity |
10:15 Sessions | Distributed Brand | Enterprise 2.0 | Legal Issues | |
11:30 Sessions | Engaging the Customer | Culture Shift | In-Line Video | SEO |
1:30 Sessions | PR & Social Media | Project Management | Social Networks | Data Portability |
2:45 Sessions | Monitoring & Measurement | Customer Service | Podcasting | Mashups |
Needless to say, there'll be a whole lotta blogging going on. I'm sure there will be much to discuss on this blog as a result of going to this mini-conference. Stay tuned!
