Sitting in front of a computer writing new posts, and trying to find ways to increase our traffic and tweaking our design.. ok those are inevitable! But there is so much more than that to blogging! Why not attend a blogging seminar/conference and take the discussions out of the comment box?
Here’s the list of the events and meetups i would really really like to attend (and will try my best to attend):

I’ve never really attended a seminar or conference before. They sound interesting..I might have to sometime :D Sounds like a great way to meet the people who write the blogs you read.
Hey Gregg! Yeah i think it’s a good way to meet fellow bloggers and entrepreneurs! Never know, going to an event of convention can lead to more exposure to our blog, and potentially create strong partnerships! :)
