“Where better to take the pulse of this rapidly growing community of writers, thinkers and observers than the Brooklyn Blogfest?” ~ Sewell Chan, The New York Times
Since it was founded in 2006, the Brooklyn Blogfest has established itself as the nexus of creativity, talent, and insight among the blogosphere’s brightest lights. This year will be no different with Keynote speaker, Jeff Jarvis of Buzzmachine.com, who will discuss new business models for bloggers (i.e. making money as a blogger).
Just added to the program: an opening video by award winning photographer Gabriela Herman. For her series, Bloggers, she photographs bloggers at night lit by the light of their computer screens (see photo left).
Also on tap: a video tribute to Brooklyn’s photo bloggers, special networking sessions for like-minded bloggers, and Blogs Aloud, a dramatic reading of the most interesting blog writing out there. Plus: a roof-raising after-party with cash bar, food and music.
Buy tickets NOW at thebellhouse.com. Blogfest is for bloggers, social networkers, journalists, creative entrepreneurs, and anyone interested in reading or starting a blog.
