Thanks for your comments and we hope to see you all there. We’re sorry it didn’t get announced sooner.

I agree with Martins comments, and on another related topic, what annoys me is how little time a lot of these conferences give in terms of notice, believe it or not travelling half way around the globe isn’t all that easy unless you’ve got money to burn, why cant they announce these thngs 6 months out?

Being another Aussie blogger, there’s just about zero possibility of attending any blogging conferences … without being attached to a MSM outlet. And that ain’t gonna happen!

But with what the Internet is today, geography should not be a problem. Any “serious” conference should have this facility of including anyone who wants to attend/contribute via virtually attending. That could be simply going live, providing hourly/daily wrap-ups.

I’d be willing to pay to attend online say, if there was a live feed (audio/video/text)

The summit was great last year. Interesting people. Interesting speaks. This year it’s in the best possible tech location, so I’m sure it’ll be even better. I’m thinking about attending, but right now it’s a toss up between the summit and Jupiter Media’s Search Engine Strategies conference in San Jose (Aug 8 – 11th).

I spoke at the last BBS and it was pretty good IMHO. I’d love to go to this next one, but I’m on my honeymoon – bastards picked the wrong date, lol.

I’d say SXSW is pretty good, at least this last year they had quite a few session that I feel would benefit any blogger pro or not. The nice thing is lots of these weren’t really blog specific. There are sessions on business, design, content, etc. And it’s a great place for networking as so many people attend.

ps – not sure what’s up with that last comment…

You have raised some interesting points which I have failed to read but I just feel a sense of “I must leave a comment” on a like minded Inquisitive Blog Blogger thingy. Please do visit my blog at http://inquisitivehand.blogspot.com. And make sure you bookmark it too or I’ll be rather unconscious. Good tidings and farewell.

P.S. Adsense is the way forward but is not the be all and end all of website monitization. There are other tools out there for maximizing revenue from a Blog, however, some of them (for blogs) are about are useful as a box without a base. To truly make money from Adsense a person must steer clear of Blogs and instead move towards a more hard coded XHTML, CSS and SSI system of working. By using a Blogger it’s like having a slave really to do the work for you. I must say that people need to get of their touches if they really wanna make some money and score highly on the Internet. However, saying this, a Blogger is probably the first contact for the ‘average dude’ with a website. (An ‘average dude’ in America is defined as a 16 stone idiot just as a note)…but enough babbling and more ADSENSE, ADSENSE, ADSENSE!!!
