Blog World Expo

Written by Kevin Muldoon from System0 on August 13, 2007

I saw an ad for the Blog World Expo on Pro Blogger a few days ago. Anyone who’s anyone will be there and with the price of a basic ticket costing only $50, you would be crazy not to go if you are based state side

The expo will be a great opportunity to not only learn more about blogging, but also to network and meet other bloggers. Not only that, the expo is being held in vegas!!! OK, many of you will not be getting excited by this but I’m a poker player so Vegas is paradise to me. I was there last year and the year before but didn’t make it this year because I was still travelling. I’m going next June with about 10 friends and I’ll probably enter a tournament at the WSOP but this expo is a great excuse for me to hit vegas before then. Two birds, one stone (don’t worry, I don’t actually throw stones at birds!).

The expo is on November 8th and 9th. If you can attend, make a point of emailing me before hand and we can arrange to have a few beers:)

Find out more at the official Blog World Expo website.

Bloggers I’m hoping to meet

* List includes bloggers I’d both like to meet and those I think I will attend

And of course I also want to meet all of the Blogging Tips authors

Share and Enjoy:

I’d love to be there Kev.. Not sure if it would be possible this time, since am in India right now.

Hi Kevin,

As much as I’d love to be there later this year, I’ve booked a trip to India so am heading in the opposite direction.

How good would it be to meet those people you list though!

I don’t think I can travel over to the US again without taking my wife along, so that would be $5000 just for the flights.
I really can’t justify the trip currently.

If I had something to promote it would be more worthwhile… we will have to see…

This is always one of the drawbacks of living in the UK…

it was on my list however I’m giving a seminar conference in CA a few days before and it’s just not going to happen.

Hey, thanks. I’ve been thinking about attending the event… but not looking forward to the 5 hour flight. So we’ll see… I’ll keep you updated!

this is the first I’ve head of it, off to check it out, I have no idea at the moment if I’d be there or not, if so it would be my first conference.

Andy - If you book in advance you can pick up some cheap flights to vegas. My friends paid £700 for a return from Glasgow to Vegas , the flight was direct and it included a weeks stay in Excalibur.

Zac - 5 hours isn’t too bad. Its about 11 from the UK (if you can get a direct flight).

45n5 - You should definately think about it Mark

Hey Kevin - Unfortunately the USA is a bit too far for me to travel to at the moment, so you won’t see me there. Enjoy the experience!

Damn, I was actually just in Vegas a few weeks back. This sounds like a really interesting event, and it would be nice to meet some of the faces behind the blogs…

David, When are you coming to India? And where? Is it at a carnival?
Mani | August 13th, 2007 at 9:02 pm #

David, When are you coming to India? And where? Is it at a blog expo?
Elaine Ramos | August 13th, 2007 at 10:02 pm #

I wish I could be there

Mani,

It’s for a well-deserved R&R break, leaving the blog world behind for a while and re-charging the batteries.

Hi Kevin,

To echo what others are saying, I won’t be there either. In my case it’s because my family situation has changed and I’m not a full-time “Mr Mom” to my four kids.

Much as I would love to be there

Thanks for including me in your list, mate.

It would definitely be awesome to attend. although I already have other plans in the fall and i think my family would kick my butt if I found another trip to go on.

In Sep I am flying to the states for three weeks. this is half personal/half business trip. I’ll be going to NJ, AZ, GA, and NC. Then at the end of October I am planning an R&R trip to either Portugal or Spain..I’m still undecided. So as much as I would LOVE to go, I don’t think I’ll be able to make it.

However, if you’re in Spain around that time, you’ll have to let me know!
Kevin | August 14th, 2007 at 9:13 am #

I totally understand why so many will not be able to make it. I’m using this expo as an excuse for a trip to Vegas haha.

I believe theres an exhibition in London at the end of September though, something worth considering for UK based bloggers
Zac Johnson | August 14th, 2007 at 11:27 am #

Hey Kevin,

No doubt. 5 hours isn’t bad… As of lately, I just have a conference/trip like that going on every other month it seems. I’ll do my best to be there.
Kevin | August 14th, 2007 at 11:36 am #

Yeah I appreciate that Zac. You were at the conference last month. I didn’t make it which is one of the reasons I want to make the extra effort for this one
