Behind the Blog Panel – June 24, 2010
As people start to live more public lives on-line the question becomes “How much is too much?"
In the age of blogging, twitter and facebook how do individuals strike a work / life balance. (or does balance even exist? ) We'll also explore how creative professionals use blogs to connect with their audience.
Join us as we have a candid conversation with bloggers who write about the 80’s, bosses, ex-boyfriends and hangovers.
Please RSVP at ihm9to5 [at] gmail dot com.
