For the cool price of $109, plus hotel fees ranging around $150 a night, bloggers from across Virginia can travel on their own nickel to Hot Springs and learn how to blog!
“New Media: Blogging, E Campaigns, Websites” is the name of a workshop scheduled at this year’s RPV advance. So far, I don’t know of any Virginia bloggers asked to be on the panel. Maybe they’ll tout their huge new media successes like this or this (those are the blogs that double their hits by refreshing the screen).
Some workshops may be canceled to make room for a huge Q & A session on the future of the GOP. (wonder what they’ll do with the workshop called “Growing your Unit”?).
But I’m curious who they’ve planned on teaching us about New Media, and what state they are hoping will tell us how it’s done. Virginians like JR, John Henke, Shaun Kenney, Jim Riley, Lynn Mitchell or Chris Green – and a host of others – don’t seem to have made the cut.
I hope they all can attend the advance to learn how to do this the RPV way.
The smart way to do a workshop about new media would be to comp Virginia Republican bloggers to attend and make it very easy for them to post all about the Advance, leading up to and during the event. Lord knows the mainstream media won’t do it, except to attack us.
We all have so much to learn, I guess.
