I was unable to attend the Be Your Own Media conference today at BSU — scheduling conflicts wouldn’t allow for it. I’d be interested, however, in hearing from anyone who did.

What did you think of the conference?
What were the good and bad parts about the day?
Was it worth your time?
Anything in particular that you’d like to share with the class?

While I don’t recall seeing much of any press coverage around this conference, as opposed to the one that Blueline put on earlier this year, I do hope that it was well attended, at that the participants walked away with a different point of view, even if only slightly so.

Oh, and Tac — thank you for the invitation. Hopefully I’ll be able to sit in on the next conference.

Blueline Grassroots Marketing is once again presenting the Be Your Own Media conference, this time on the campus of Boise State University in Boise.

The conference is on Monday, November 13th, from 9:00am – 4:30pm in the Hatch Ballroom of the BSU Student Union Building. Cost to attend is $25, and registration begins at 8:30am.

Is it worth spending the $25 to attend this conference? I think so, as long as you go into it with an open mind. By no means will this provide all of the answers, but you might leave with a different point of view.

Marketing Media Group in Boise is doing a little remodeling, on their website at least.

It would appear that they’ve also picked up shop and moved to a space downtown. The new address listed on their website is on 6th St., rather than their old address on Parkcenter.
