BlogWorld & New Media Expo

Blogging, the increasingly popular form of online communications, will assume a new level of importance in the business community next year with the launch of the inaugural BlogWorld & New Media Expo, slated for the Las Vegas Convention Center, Nov. 8-9, 2007. The event, which will combine elements of the corporate communications world with the needs of active, individual "bloggers" will be the first gathering of its kind. According to show producer, Libby Durfee, the event will provide a platform for businesses to connect with established corporate and mainstream bloggers, vloggers, podcasters, Internet radio broadcasters, and other new media outlets seeking the latest technologies.

The event will also feature a comprehensive seminar program, led by experts in each field, appealing to specific blogging needs, such as increasing readership, monetizing a blog, and the influence of blogs in politics. One of the conference tracks will address the needs of businesses that are already active in the blogosphere or are interested in taking advantage of the tremendous opportunities blogging offers as this form of communication gains recognition as an increasingly significant factor in the coming years.

BlogWorld, which will encompass 40, 000 square feet of space at the Las Vegas venue, will also host the Weblog Awards, recognizing the best blogs of the year from several categories. Many of those same categories form the core of the audience that will attend this first-ever blogging industry tradeshow and conference.
