We are so glad to announce that again this year Bouhammer himself will be a panelist at the biggest blogging conference in the country. It is called Blog World Expo and you can read more about it at http://www.blogworldexpo.com/. Last year the Annual Milblog conference was held in conjunction with the expo, and Bouhammer was afforded the opportunity to be a panelist then. Just to give you an idea on the numbers that attend this conference, in 2008 there were over 280 speakers, over 15,000 in attendance and over 92 million people that watched on the internet.
This year we moved the annual Milblog Conference back to Washington DC, which we held in April. However Blog World Expo wanted to have dedicated milblog track so there are several panels chaired and ran by milbloggers on the first day of the conference.
Bouhammer is honored and flattered to be sitting on a panel called “Getting The Picture: What’s Next for Milblogs?” The description of the panel is below.
“Audience demands and demographics are changing. New technologies are emerging that, according to some, make blogs as much dinosaurs as print technology. What does the future hold for milblogs? Come join a panel of milbloggers and social media gurus as they discuss the future of milblogging.”
Bouhammer is sitting on this panel with some very esteemed bloggers and good friends. With him on this panel is his partner-in-crime on YouServed.com Blog and Radio show, CJ Grisham. Also his very close friend and brother-in-arms, Scott Kesterson who writes several blogs and is the director and film-maker of the acclaimed documentary, At War. The highly respected Scott Henderson from www.mediasauce.com is also sitting on the panel. Last, and certainly not least the panel is being moderated by Bouhammer’s good friend and MilBlog Master, Matt Burden from www.Blackfive.net.
There are many panels over the three days, and I encourage you visit http://www.blogworldexpo.com/ to learn more about the conference and see the entire schedule. Some of the other milblog panels are ; “They Also Serve: Spouse Bloggers”, “Best Milblogs You’ve Never Read”, and “Milblogs: Not Your Standard News Source”. You should check out the breakdown of the other panels and see if your favorite milblogger in going to be on a panel at www.warriorlegacyfoundation.org/?page=BlogWorldExpo
