After lunch today all the members of the IFAJ 2009 Committee got together in our white shirts sporting the Congress logo for a quick picture.
IFAJ Congress In Ft. Worth In 2009
At lunch today Greg Lamp (speaking), Corn and Soybean Digest, and Mike Wilson, Farm Futures, gave us a presentation on the 2009 International Federation of Agricultural Journalists Congress (IFAJ) which will be held in Ft. Worth, TX.
Guess Whose Shoes
This could become a regular feature here on AgWired. Guess who’s shoes these are.
InfoExpo Open
The InfoExpo is in full swing here at the Ag Media Summit. I’m getting ready to spend some time there and conduct some interviews.
Morning New Media Roundtable
I am truly such an idiot. I didn’t record my presentation yesterday or the roundtable discussion on the same subject this morning.
I just led a discussion on agriblogging and farm podcasting after breakfast. There were about 11 people in the discussion and it was excellent. I am fascinated by the interest in podcasting on the part of publications, especially when I see so little interest in it on the part of farm broadcasters.
Workshop Follow Up
The Agriblogging and Farm Podcasting workshop is over. I would estimate about 70 in attendance. For some reason I didn’t get any more pics for you but I might find one that someone else took and add it later.
Showing How To Blog
We’re in the Agriblogging and Farm Podcasting workshop.
Agriblogging and Farm Podcasting Workshop
Hello from Portland and the Ag Media Summit. I’m here in the Portland Hilton, Galleria North room ready to start another workshop on how to blog and podcast.
I’ll probably post during the presentation too and have a summary of how it went for you later.
Rocking With Quasimojo
After getting back to the Portland Hilton (and air conditioning) from our river cruise it was party time. Wait a minute. What were we doing on the boat?
Andy Markwart Horizon Award
In honor of Andy Markwart, former editor of The Furrow, beloved member of the Quasimojo Band and AAEA, who passed away earlier this year, John Deere is creating and supporting the Andy Markwart Horizon Award. The idea is to create a fund over the next couple years from which scholarships can be awarded to students so they can attend either the Ag Media Summit or an international event like the IFAJ Congress.
