You’re warmly invited to the October 22 Blogger Face Up, a light evening of wine and wit where scores of Los Angeles bloggers and social media mavens will finally meet face-to-face.
How many times have you wondered what the rest of the L.A. blogosphere looks like? Come find out! We’d love to see you at the Steve Allen Theater/Los Angeles Press Club headquarters on the fourth Thursday in October.
The evening begins at 6:30 PM with a cocktail hour featuring a bottomless glass of wine and delicious appetizers. At 7:30 PM, we’ll enjoy a relaxed, 45-minute chat among top online talents Mickey Kaus of Slate.com, Andrew Nystrom of the Los Angeles Times, Thomas Kelley of Yahoo News, and Erin Broadley of Village Voice Media. They’ll discuss topics like seeding, integrating news and blogging, and emerging platforms. They’ve graciously agreed to participate in an audience Q & A.
At 8:15 PM, we’ll re-gather in the wine lounge.
The Los Angeles Press Club is a non-profit organization, so we’ll charge a nominal door fee to cover beverages and appetizers.
