I've seen on a couple of other blogs that other people had issues as well.<br /><br />I'm glad to see that the blogger con was better than last year because in terms of blogging last year was really disappointing, though it seems like it still needs some work in terms of making it a day that is all about blogging. <br /><br />I love wordpress and I'm really glad I switched. I love everything it can do (especially the automation - I can be so lazy!) but I know that it's not for everyone.Kimberly @ Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10649785182080499981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-75046219039586266072013-06-06T11:12:59.122-04:002013-06-06T11:12:59.122-04:00You were awesome that morning!

The guy was a giant snobdouche. <br /><br />I think the Blogger Con could be handled better. I think because the panels don't offer much that we should have time to have table discussions with other bloggers, time to make connections and discuss what works for us. That's the reason I'll go again (if I decide to do Blogger Con), because I enjoy meeting other bloggers. <br /><br />The cocktail hour was fun, and it was really nice being able to chat with real authors (even if some of us do spill red wine all over ourselves). ;) Kate @Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220575670960466054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-88549749010151152872013-06-06T10:56:24.381-04:002013-06-06T10:56:24.381-04:00wow I have heard mixed reviews about the con.

Long story and VERY rude manager that upset both of us quite a bit. I tweeted this and one of the organizers of the Con responded immediately to come find her and she would have a ticket."<br />LOL the power of Twitter.Roberta R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18228840429799100354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9114795204205214186.post-74553618560012087172013-06-06T08:26:31.201-04:002013-06-06T08:26:31.201-04:00It sounds like they are working it out but still h...It sounds like they are working it out but still have some ways to go. I want to go to BEA but I don't know that I would go in early for the blogger con. I am glad they mentioned the FTC, I know a lot of people were unaware of their changes.
