UC-Berkeley will be hosting BlogOn: The Business of Social Media. An all-star cast of speakers are coming to talk about blogs, social networks, syndication and whatnot. Basically, it looks like a great gathering for those interested in social media.
Furthermore, they have discounts for bloggers and i’m very psyched to announce that they have scholarships for students and economically-disadvantaged bloggers. I wish more organized events recognized the importance of getting bright minds involved who don’t have the economic freedom to usually participate in these conversations.
hey, could you hook up some of the blind photographers that i work with with some voice equipment and blogging tools for there photography?
you could contact daniel chen from the university of toronto or steve mann himself to discuss some of the needed equipment…and how to use the funding for really interesting research.
you have my email address: i could send you steve’s phone number and when to call him…
john gardner is visually impaired and lives in brooklyn…he does not have a computer: i could write a grant proposal if you wish.
that would be way cool and altruistically great karma…even if you can’t help, the sentiment remains.
stef
if you wish, i could connect you with jef raskin out in pacifica who is working with the blind as well and would be interested in wearables and blogging for the visually impaired.
….stef….
look at the shooting blind photo’s
just tap above after seeing the shooting blind picutures: we could blog from a casino with one of steve mann’s devises with john gardner…
sorry for weirdo posting: got to be different and free
how should i propose if more than one person is involved? one page is all that is needed?
hit link below: i guess it doing something unusual with the blogs standards: kind of capitation
hey cool event, good luck… too bad there are only 3 women among the N-number of the men-all-star bloggers… and then men all look so ultra impressive. and why does this have to happen the weekend AFTER I am in Berkeley? 🙂
