Ag Media Summit Photo Albums

Using The New Media Tools
The program this week is a followup to the Agricultural Media Summit in Portland, Oregon. Interest is very high in using new media tools like agriblogging and farm podcasting.
Spafford With Hall of Fame Award
Last night I ran into Amber Spafford, Osborn & Barr Communications, who received this year’s Livestock Publications Council Hall of Fame Award.
Reception Time
It’s time to do a little recepting here at the AMS. Starting now we have the BASF Media reception. Then it’s off to the Awards Celebrations Reception, combined AAEA and LPC. Then they have their awards dinners before getting back together for the Dessert Reception.
I’ll get back to you after enjoying a little reception time.
Ciao.

Darts With boelte-hall
InfoExpo can be kind of relaxing when seminars are in progress. Here at the boelte-hall booth it was time to play darts.
