Agriblogging Professional Improvement Opportunity
For you agribloggers and farm podcasters seeking some professional improvement opportunities this summer, here’s one. It’s the Blogworld & New Media Expo. The dates are September 20-21 in Las Vegas. I am thinking about going.

Hi Chuck, Don’t forget the New Media Expo (http://www.newmediaexpo.com/) Aug 14 - 16, also in Las Vegas (everyone ends up in Vegas:). This is _the_ event for new media like podcasting and video cast! John Blue

I haven’t. I’m just trying them all. This year’s New Media Expo conflicts with something else on my schedule.
