It’s all going to be here on AgWired too. I’ll be blogging the BIO, live from Chicago’s McCormick Place starting at the end of this weekend. This is going to be an interesting challenge. They’re claiming a crowd of nearly 20,000 people from all over the world.

The biggest news though is that my coverage is being sponsored by Rhea & Kaiser Marketing Communications. Just recently we reported that the agency has joined with Worldwide Partners, Inc. I think these folks are really open to new ways of doing things and this sponsorship is ample proof of that. In fact, R&K is going to have the distinction of being the first agency to advertise on AgWired. Is it too early to call it a trend?

I want to say thank you to Steve Rhea and his staff for this opportunity to work with them on this event. You’ll be seeing lots of interesting content here as we work through the coming days.

I’ve got to give you my BIO news release update. I’m up to 60 news releases that have been emailed to me this week so far. Most of them are an announcement about a press conference or interview opportunity. There’s no way a lone blogger can make them all but I’ll be at as many as I can. I look forward to bringing you the best of the BIO.
