Interesting, but unfortunately only one "real-life" non-techie blogger. One of the panelists made his living from a blog network and another uses his to attract clients. His business is helping businesses set up blogs. The non-techie was a realtor with only a few months of blogging experience.
I'd like to see a panel of just small business bloggers where their blogs are a marketing tools, not a revenue source, and their business doesn't center around blogging.
That said, I have some terrific notes about the session which I will summarize and post over at DoRealTime by the end of today.
My method of covering the conference works pretty well for me. I take mind map notes during the presentation which enables me to summarize pretty well afterwards. The process of physically writing during the presentation helps me internalize the information better and also lets me actually look at the presenters. Yesterday, one presenter commented that it was strange to see a room where everyone's heads were down.A huge shout out to the wonderful Teresa Valdez Klein from Blog Business Summit - she's fun, energetic and a great organizer.
Diane,
Perhaps its stime for a small business summit on blogging. Tim needs to set it up and then we can all benefit!
