IZEAFest Conference Thoughts

I am re-energized to blog again after attending the IZEAFest conference. The conference had some big money bloggers in attendence. I was really surprised that there wasn’t a packed house. I thought the conference was a little bit light on content and not enough technical information for advanced bloggers. However, I did find the session about Wordpress plugins really informative. I found several plugins that will help are clients such as FeedWrangler, RSS Footer, Zemanta, Bad Behavior, and several others. The conference was also leveraging Twitter and Ustream.tv. It was pretty cool to see all of the live tweets from the audience as well as those watching it live on Ustream.tv posted to several large screen tv’s. I bet we will see this more often at tech type conferences. Overall I would give it a thumbs up, just because you were able to rub elbows with some of the top bloggers on the Internet for only $65!
