Blogging While Brown – Day 2

Day two of Blogging While Brown was a day to remember. Not only were the workshops good, the side discussions were also on point. You had black people from all walks of life and experiences in one place sharing their ideas and viewpoints. I met a lot of passionate people who love their community and I am glad I had the opportunity to attend. We learned a lot, ate good and made what I hope to be some long-lasting relationships.

It’s not the same as being there, but I did manage to live stream and record some of the conference on Ustream. I’ve also included a link to the Ustream site if you want to get the code to embed it on your website. There were a lot of attendees who asked me about using Ustream. Just for you all, I’ll put together a small tutorial later this week.

    3. Ananda,

    Same here. I have a lot of business cards to go through. I’ll be contacting you about getting a post here for your book.

Tell me what you're thinking...
