I thought we were not going to do the call because no one really responded to my second post. So the discussion is online. I think its better this way anyway,...
I think the group to associate with would be the Word of Mouth Association, if we associated with anyone, but I know that a few members don't want to do this....
before we get to picking keynoters perhaps we should work out how we are going to organize organizing this. What sort of conference/program committee will we...

As someone who can't be in the conference call I think it's reasonable to kick around a few ideas before the rest of you talk. I can't see any need for a...
oh yeah, giant disclaimer. i'm not trying to be a "negative nabob of negativity" or counter productive, offering criticism (constructive!) and then never...
Fast Company's blog jam had a heck of a lot more to lose by opening its blog to pre-selected bloggers for a day. But they did it and the process was elegant in...

Speaking from Florida I know that the Florida Public Relations Association (FPRA) will not be taking any sort of lead in this arena. If we 'associate39; with any...
I like this idea of a theme a day. I would like to see the event move toward a more standardized conference presentation. There would need to be a selection...
Why? It depends what we offered our sponsors (plural) - and in my view it wouldn't be a great deal as independence is vital to our success. And surely this...
Since we're dreaming...I might be able to persuade PR Newswire to "fund" a manager for this since they're in the business of promoting "best practices" in PR...

A. Yes, a joke. B. Academia wouldn't be my first choice, but that's just me-and it should always be free and open to the public. It's a blog, not the NY Times...
I agree with Jeanene. For me, the purpose of a re-group would be less to review what transpired during Global PR BlogWeek 2.0, and more to look ahead to see...
