The Exciting News ...

The exciting news is that I will be attending the Blog World & New Media Expo in Las Vegas November 8 and 9.

Actually, I will sitting on a panel about blogging from the Home Front as part of the milblog panels being put together by military.com. There will be four milblog panels discussing a range of issues related to milblogging.

Here are the panels:

HEY, WHAT’S A MILBOG?
Moderator: Christian Lowe
Thursday, November 8 (1:30 – 2:30)

TO BLOG OR NOT TO BLOG:
MILBLOGGERS,THE DOD AND THE MEDIA
Moderator: Ward Carroll
Thursday, November 8 (2:45 – 3:45)

FROM THE FRONT
Moderator: Ward Carroll
Friday, November 9 (10:15 – 11:45)

MEANWHILE, BACK ON THE HOMEFRONT
Moderator: Andi Hurley
Friday, November 9 (1:30 – 2:30)

Some pretty exciting emails in my inbox to say the least, as the likes of Blackfive and Uncle Jimbo, Chuck Z., Jack Army, John Noonan from Op-for, Michael Yon (via video feed from Iraq), and Some Soldier's Mom -- just to name a few -- will be panelists too. I've never sat on a panel for anything before. This should be fun.

It will be good to meet some other milbloggers and to learn a whole lot more about blogging in general. Who knows, maybe I will come back and get me a design or something crazy like that.

See you in Vegas, baby! ;-)
