What’s the Mission?
Today I attended the excellent conference/unconference WordCamp Portland, and was amazed. Like at most conferences, the networking and learning opportunities were terrific. I came away with several resources and ideas that I will use on my blog (look for a new theme soon), and I was very happy to meet many people in person for [...]
Portland is one of three finalists to host the BlogHer 2009 summer conference. Cyborg anthropologist Amber Case thinks this would be a great opportunity. So do I. Do you? Amber’s setting up a database of people who would like to help promote Portland as the location for BlogHer ’09. Go sign up! If you want [...]
