#BlogathonATX® – A Bloggers Haven for Learning & Networking

Do you have a blog?  Looking to improve your blogging skills?  Always and forever chasing those illusive magical tips and tricks of the trade from individuals who’ve taken their blogs to the next level?  Then #BlogathonATX® is where you need to be Saturday, September 15th (9am-9pm)! I know I will be attending, as I am smack dab in the middle of a new website/logo design for Blinded by the Bite!

#BlogathonATX® started back in 2010 by Ilene Haddad  (aka: @IleenieWeenie on Twitter), with local businesses, entrepreneurs, bloggers and social media/blogging experts all converging in one spot to “blog their faces off” (it’s a t-shirt Ileenie Weenie wears that I love).  The event features various panel discussions covering the spectrum of blogging and social media, providing useful information to the attendees.  The blog posts, tweets & Facebook posts were swarming the internet with more than 10,000 people being reached – Impressive for #BlogathonATX® 1st event!

Subsequent #BlogathonATX® events have been held here in Austin and in March 2012, Ilene was honored by the Austin American Statesman with a Social Media Award for her work with #BlogathonATX® and in April of 2012 Ilene was presented with the Anne Durrum Robinson Creative Initiative Award by the Association for Women in Communications, Austin Professional Chapter.

With the growth of #BlogathonATX® Ilene has created a fabulous team by pooling some of Austin’s best in blogging, social media and a tech team to create an event that sells out every time!
