Hi Guys!

Is there a way to get a link so I can get the Blog philly button for my site, so I can link back here as well?

Hi Whitney,
As you’ll see over on the left, there’s now not only a badge for your blog/site, but a little snip of code so you can place it on your site easily! Everyone else should do this too, let the world know, “YOU’LL BE THERE!”

I can’t attend both days but I might be able to attend on Friday, July 13. Where can I get a list of seminars and times?

Is there some way I can contact you regarding this conference?

Hey, I would like to volunteer to get the word out. I have an e-mail list of 3,000 with my newsletter. Go to my website at Philly Flowers and Roses and sign up for the mailing list so that I can send you a copy. But, thats what I do. I promote events. I also host 3, business events as a ‘Stop the Violence’ fundraiser throughout the year.

I want to know how I can get a link for my site on your page. I also decorate events. So, let me know if you need anything in the way of balloons or floral centerpieces. We have a team of youth entrepreneurs who do all the work.

[…] is Thursday, which marks the start of the two-day BlogPhiladelphia conference in Philadelphia, PA. I’ll be speaking tomorrow at 9:30am on a panel and it should […]

What a great idea! Don’t think I can make it although hoping there will be more similar events down the road. Great blog you have here. -Mike
