Now that I’m back full-time in the US, it’s not such a chore to get to conferences. I can even attend conferences that I’m not speaking at, which is something I seldom (if ever) did in the 8 years I lived in New Zealand. Yet it can be an excellent opportunity to connect with really interesting people and to expand my thinking. Last month, I attended BlogHer, to listen to my daughter Chloe, and I also made the trip to San Francisco for WordCamp. This month, I almost went to Gnomedex, but I hadn’t acted soon enough and it had sold out by the time I went to register.
Here is a list of conferences that I haven’t been invited to speak at and would love to attend:
SXSW Interactive is absolutely worth the trip to Austin and it isn’t very expensive.
i have yet to go to a conference as i am new to blogging, but i look forward to attending as many as i can as they seem to have a wealth of information for everyone.
