Not sure if any readers will be at Yearly Kos, but it appears my portfolio has expanded a bit, so there'll be even more opportunities to hear me rant and rave (loudly, because when you're screaming, no one understands you're ill-informed) about stuff that confuses me:- Thursday, Aug. 2 - 9:30am-11:00am -- The Agony and Ecstacy of Successful State-Local Blogging
Building successful state-wide networks in the online and offline worlds is a key component to your success. Find out how to tap the rich resources of progressive groups and like-minded bloggers to help build your influence. Then, once your blog hits the big time, how do you deal with trolls, flame wars, crazy uncle bloggers and the seedy side of your newfound virtual fame.
Other Panelists: Justin Cole, Media Matters; Bobby Clark, ProgressNow; Julielyn Gibbons, Michigan Democratic Party.
- Thursday, Aug. 2 - 3:30pm-4:30pm -- Rocky Mountain Blog Caucus
I'll be one of several co-chairs of the caucus, just helping introduce various bloggers from the Rocky Mountain region and get a discussion going around areas of mutual interest in the Rocky Mountain states. Think guns, land, and water.
- Friday, Aug. 3 - 1:00pm-2:15pm -- Building the Progressive Youth Movement
Smashing myths and building bridges - building a progressive youth movement. The panel will put to rest the many myths that still perpetuate among the media, candidates, and the electorate, about this increasingly engaged, and highly progressive demographic. Panelists will also discuss their own work in building the infrastructure for a sustainable progressive youth movement, as well as the challenges that we face as we look towards 2008 and beyond.
Other Panelists: Adam Conner, Roosevelt Institute & Young People For; Alexis McGill, Citizen Change (aka 'Vote or Die'); Shaunna Thomas, Young People For; Mike Connery, FutureMajority.com; and Ivan Frishberg, Young Voter PAC.
- Friday, Aug. 3 - 4:00pm-5:00pm -- All Politics is Still Local: Local Blogging 3
In 2006, local blogs hit the political scene with a big splash, playing a crucial role in many campaigns across the nation. Join bloggers from Montana, Massachusetts and Texas to take a look back at what worked (and what didn't)--and to discuss what the future holds in store for this growing niche. Laura Clawson of Daily Kos and Blue Hampshire will moderate.
Other Panelists: David Kravitz, Blue Mass. Group and Karl-Thomas Musselman, Burnt Orange Report & ActBlue.
