Ten Tips for the Final BlogPotomac
BlogPotomac is almost sold out (10 seats left at time of publishing). If you are registered get ready for a great event. Here are some news bytes and tips for attendees, and our first item is for everyone.
There is a happy hour the night before. Why not take advantage of the opportinity to mingle with BlogPotomac keynotes Beth Kanter and Shel Israel? Details are here.- A “wake” for BlogPotomac — a.k.a. post event happy hour — is being organized by Shireen Mitchell and Adam Zand. We will post the details as soon as they become available.
- Wear jeans, sweaters, or similar casual wear. It is a social media unconference, and as such you should not be surprised by a somewhat nonchalant open culture, including dress.
- Because it is a modified unconference format (see past post explaining format), audience members should be ready to participate. If you are new to social media, please do not ask what an RSS feed is, or if Twitter really matters. We assume a 101 level of knowledge for this event.
- This particular BlogPotomac focuses on the future of online media, so get ready!
- Doors open at 8, and we will get on our way by 8:45. A full agenda can be found here.
- All attendees will receive a copy of Shel Israel’s Twitterville. He will be available to sign copies during the morning sessions.
- Lunch will be served by DC Central Kitchen’s Fresh Start catering service! We’ll have coffee in the morning, too, and a mid-morning snack provided by Cabot Cheese!
- The State Theater will open a cash bar for the final two sessions. So if you want to get an early start on Happy Hour, please do so!
- The Theater is located here at 220 N. Washington
Falls Church, VA 22046. The following is a map of the State Theater via Google Maps.
We look forward to seeing you on Friday!
