Heading to BlogOrlando Today

This afternoon I am leaving for Orlando where I will be attending BlogOrlando tomorrow. This event is certainly a LOT easier to get to than Gnomedex. Instead of getting on a plane and flying 3,000 miles, I can get in my car and drive 80 miles. So, tonight I will be staying in a room in Orlando so as to avoid the early morning rush hour drive from Tampa to Orlando on Friday morning. Then, I’ll just drive back to Tampa tomorrow after the event.

I hope BlogOrlando is worth the time and effort. In looking at the schedule, it looks like they have a decent line-up. In fact, the line-up looks a lot more relevant to bloggers than the schedule at Gnomedex. Given the cost and travel time for Gnomedex, it is debatable whether it was worth it for me. So, it’s really convenient having a relevant conference over here in Florida. Florida, too often, seems like the backwoods of the dot-com field. Why? What is go great about California?

I expect to be posting from Orlando. This, of course, depends on wifi access (which is supposed to be supplied by Rollins College) and time. You can also follow the Twitter updates of BlogOrlando.
