Learning from BlogHer - Possible Changes to BlogOrlando Session Lengths
This past weekend I went to BlogHer and attempted to spend quite a bit of my time observing the conference format/style in advance of BlogOrlando. Currently at BlogOrlando we're thinking about doing 30 minute sessions, but I think that might not be enough. BlogHer had sessions that lasted 1.5 hours which I thought was a bit too longer, so perhaps one hour is the sweet spot.
However, I don't want to remove any sessions, so we might run two sets at certain points and allow folks to choose which ones they want to attend. This solves a problem I have been facing, i.e. folks might not be interested in a single track. I am scheduled to visit the venue this week and look things over. If we can split things up successfully then I will move forward with that plan. If we do run concurrent sessions then I will be adding a few new topics/leaders.
More to come soon.....
