Blogs and social media are great, but you can often learn more, meet more people and have a richer experience attending conferences, seminars and other events in person. There’s a big difference between skimming a blog post in your RSS reader and the immersive, interactive experience of a conference.
That’s why, if you’re interested in social media, search engine optimization (SEO) and doing business online, you should attend ConvergeSouth 2010. (Disclaimer: I am one of the volunteers helping to put the conference together. I’m involved because I’ve attended several past ConvergeSouth conferences and I think it’s a great conference.)
So far, this year’s line-up of speakers includes:
- Craig Newmark, founder of Craigslist
- Elyse Porterfield, of quitting a job via whiteboard fame, on viral video marketing
- Will Carroll, Sports Illustrated’s Fantasy League writer
- SEO pro Brent Payne (who’s in charge of SEO for 50+ Tribune Co. websites)
There’s a full schedule over there on the right-hand navigation menu of my blog. Want to learn more? More importantly, want to register? You should. Visit the ConvergeSouth website and sign-up today. It’ll be worth it. I’ll see you there.
