REBlogworld - So, you think you can blog?

So, you are a blogger? Or, maybe, like many of us, you would like to try to become a better blogger? Either way, there is an amazing opportunity (see excuse to go) coming soon to Las Vegas. It is called…? Blogworld and New Media Expo.  For the real estate and mortgage industries, a “must attend” Friday conference will be REBlogworld on September 19th. REBlogworld is followed on the 20th and 21st by Blogworld and New Media Expo. Check out “The first and only industry-wide tradeshow, conference, and media event dedicated to promoting the dynamic industry of blogging and new media” this is some serious information overload for many of us that “think” we can blog. Hear and learn from industry experts on topics such as “Blog Publishing Software, Designers and Communities, Podcasting, Internet TV & Radio Services, Equipment and Networks, Social Media Technology and Communities, Badges, Widgets and Plug-ins, Computer Hardware, Software and Peripherals, RSS Services, Advertising Networks, Affiliate Programs, Mobile Blogging and Vlogging Technology and Devices, Broadband, Wi-Fi and ISP’s and much more…” A schedule of events will make you want to figure out how to be in more than one place at a time!

My friends, Jason Berman and Todd Carpenter are adding their expertise to help us all become better bloggers. If you have never met these guys, I can promise you that your trip to Vegas would be more than complete just by getting to know them. Speaking at REBlogworld is a “who’s who” of some of our industries top social media guru’s. Take a look at the information on the web sites and on the REBlogworld Blog. This will be one weekend where you might not want everything to “stay in Vegas.” The knowledge you gain from this trip promises to be worth bringing home with you. However, like I said, I know some of these guys and believe me… It won’t be all work and no play! :-)

Tweet Up, Meet Up, Geek Up..

Steve Belt and I are planning a meetup at Depot Cantina 8/5 ~5pm in Tempe. All Tweeps, Twealtors, Rainer’s, bloggers, geeks and heck, everyone is invited!

At AZREBN, we didn’t get to meet this month. This is a perfect excuse opportunity to get together! There is always a lot to talk about. :-)

Hope you can make it!

Nick
