Thanks for the IZEAFest shout-out, David! We’ll definitely look forward to seeing you at the event, and I hope many of your readers will be able to make it, too.

Frank, if you can make it, it’d be good to meet you. I know I was up there recently and we didn’t cross paths, mainly because it was in the middle of the work-week and you were working (Plus, when you have the wife with you, you’re subject to what she wants to do ). But, perhaps in August.

I’m looking hard at attending affillate summit east, however it falls on the same weekend as my 1st wedding anniversary. I’ll see if I can get passed that issue.

I always need to consider the price of conventions, at least Affillate Summit East is in NYC.

Stuart – I see you’re local to Chicago. There are some good meetups that happen regularly. My faves are:

http://www.meetup.com/chicagobloggers/
http://www.meetup.com/mywplife/
http://www.meetup.com/social-media-marketing/

Just a thought.

Is there a site that has a good list of conferences related to blogging, SEO, online marketing, etc floating around anywhere online with a writeup on them?

I’m sure most people know the major ones- however there may be smaller ones located closer to many readers here that would hold interest as well.

Yep, Dave’s right, I’m planning on going to BlogWorld! How do I get in on this beer and cigar situation, Mike?

Also going to go to WordCamp Chicago in June, and just maybe Izeafest in October as well. I’ve been bit by the conference bug.

I never attended conferences for bloggers yet, I would love to do so, but unfortunately I have some difficulties to do it, maybe because I am a little far away now!

Good luck everybody, I hope I can join you soon!

Mike, I look forward to it, my friend. I also found out today that my new VA, Lisa, is planning on going to BlogWorld. Will be nice to meet her in person as well.

The two conferences that I attend regularly are the International Association for Identification conference (our company is a major sponsor) and Oracle OpenWorld.

So far the biggest conference that I’ve missed is P-Camp 2009; I was considering using some frequent flyer miles to head up north, but couldn’t go due to some internal and external issues.

Casual affairs are good also; I recently went to a FriendFeed meetup with a few FriendFeed users from greater Los Angeles. Ironically, there were Flickr and Twitter events on the same day…
