Inside Blog World & New Media Expo 2012

I am pumped to attend and cover Blog World. ICYDK, BlogWorld & New Media Expo is the first, largest and only industry-wide tradeshow, conference and media event dedicated to promoting the dynamic industry of new media.  That's a mouthful! 

The 3 days of seminars and keynotes presented by thought leaders, maverick online content creators and media moguls from across the globe. 

Some fun facts I've already learned:

- BlogWorld 2011 hosted more than 375 speakers, 250 conference sessions, and 150 exhibitors.

- In 2011, BlogWorld hosted more than 4,750 attendees from 40 countries and 335,000 online viewers across both events and breaking its previous attendance records.

- Attendees have a combined monthly online audience of 250 million (blog audience only, does not include Twitter, Facebook, Google+, etc) and generate 400 million online conversations in 3-days.

- BlogWorld L.A.’s official Twitter Hashtag, #BWELA, generated 323 million impressions, 40,000 original

tweets reaching 30.4 million people over the course of the three-day show.

- In March 2012, BlogWorld acquired TBEX, the world's largest gathering of travel bloggers taking place
