BlueGlass has put on some pretty amazing conferences over the last year or so, so I was ecstatic when I found out that they were hosting another conference called BlueGlassX. One thing BlueGlass has done very well with their conferences is their ability to attract the very best speakers in our industry and bring them together in an intimate setting.
Unfortunately we were not in attendance this time, but we are hoping to be in attendance when they put on their conference in LA this coming may. Since we weren’t there, we watched their twitter feed like a hawk and took in as much as we possibly could. We also read every summary post they posted on their blog and it is top notch stuff!
Because it was so awesome, I thought I’d put together a quick post linking out to the summary blog posts from both days of the conference. Make sure you have at least a few hours or so to get through these, process them, and figure out how to work them into your online marketing strategy.
Happy Reading!!
