Boston Blog Summit: BLOGtoberfest 2006
Posted by Jenny on 09/21/06 in Blogtoberfest, Boston, Daily
The venue has been chosen, the planning is finished, the site has been designed.
And I even picked a super adorable name! (Why do you think I kept putting this off? I needed a gimmicky month!)
Now you can all quit yer bitchin’ (OMG just kidding!) and go register (Not kidding! Do it!).
A few notes, to keep it organized and, dare I say, professional, I’m using Upcoming.org to handle the registration process. Signing up for upcoming is required to register, but it only takes a minute. I’ve had a few test subjects try out the process and I’ve gotten everything from “Yup. Got it. Super easy.” to “WHY ARE THEY ASKING ME FOR MY POSTAL CODE!” (Except insert a choice four letter word in there a few times.) (You don’t actaully have to provide your postal code. If you .. ahem .. read the instructions.)
If you are having any trouble registering, email me at jenny [at] this domain dot com. I’ll help you. And don’t forget to include your URL in your information when registering – I’ll add you to the “Blogtoberfest Participants” list so we can all keep track of who is going!
So now. Seriously. Go to it.
And, oh yeah, SEE you in October.

Aw come on! I’m not all that into Martinis to tell you the truth. I’m more of a wine and beer kind of gal. Unless you giv eme tequila. And then forget it.
But you can come by and have a beer. OR WATER! Bloggers don’t judge.

jen, i would definetely love to. the problem is that if we take a trip over there next year it’d probably have to be CA. C hasn’t been “home” in over seven years, so… another thing is that he’s not into the whole blogging-world at all. i don’t think he gets it. and i don’t think he’d understand that i would wanna spend hundrets of $$$ just to fly over and see some “strangers” i’ve met online… we’ll see though. i will definetely try to make it! :) save up and maybe just come for a few days or so. gosh, i’m dying to meet so many who are going! *sigh*

I am not limiting this to anyone. The more the merrier. I really just wanted another outlet to meet and network with people in the area!
