You just have to keep your eyes and ears open to find out about them. I don't recall how I heard about BlogWorld, but it was at the last minute in the beginning of September. When I found out it was in L.A. where I live then I knew I had to go. BlogWorld has a website. Mark it and check when they post the details for next year. If you're nearby then buy a ticket and go if you can afford it. It's well worth your time.<br /><br />Tracy Jo-- I'd been wanting to attend a blogging or writing event for a long time and now I've had my chance. It was a great time and I hope to attend more things like this.<br /><br />Jules -- There was so little time for me to talk to the Blogger folks since I wanted to get around to the other booths that my main focus was trying to find out about my current issues. I forgot all about those other frustrating issues. If you want to vent I guess you can try to go through the Blogger help forums and find the best contact and start corresponding with them. The crew seemed pretty helpful. As far as the tricks, I need to play with things and figure them out. I thought I understood what they were showing me, but when I got home and tried to do some of those things it didn't seem as easy. I'll let you know if I discover any really cool things that everyone should know.<br /><br />LeeArlee Birdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11663942782929929334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-149224757183756660.post-15107461422942093322011-11-08T04:42:28.747-08:002011-11-08T04:42:28.747-08:00WOW, what a fest.

My first Zemanta post was kind of weird, but I've done a couple more that didn't seem to go too badly.
