Web 2.0 Expo: Booze and Blogging Tomorrow

So, Web 2.0 is in town, and I’m having the pleasure of speaking at a workshop during the event. Tomorrow, I’ll be taking the stage with Eric Eldon of Venturebeat and Trish Okubo to speak about how to use blogging for social media marketing. The workshop is at 1pm. Eric and I will be covering the blogging for dollars portion of the content based on our experience at tech blogs, while Trish will tackle blogging for personal reputation and networking. Anyone have any suggestions about specific topics they’d like covered, drop me an email or comment.

Otherwise, after the talk, I’ll be heading back to SocialMedia HQ for a quick bar stop from 5-7pm before the night’s festivities. RSVP if you’d like to stop by.
