BigFoot Blogging Conference this Saturday

The first BigFoot Blogging Conference, featuring ubergeek Chris Pirillo of Lockergnome and Gnomedex fame, is this Saturday at the University of Washington.

The conference, sponsored by iCultur.com and the University of Washington's Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship, is intended as an opportunity for bloggers to get together, exchange information, and hear from speakers on a variety of blogging topics. Monica Guzman, of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer's Big Blog and Tracy Record, of West Seattle Blog, will talk about news blogging (from two very different perspectives); Andru Edwards of Gear Live Media will talk about technology news blogging; I'll be talking about the principals of blogging in general and corporate ghost-blogging in particular; and Pirillo will likely be talking about how he's used vlogging to build Lockergnome into one of the highest-traffic sites on the web.
