Sports Media 360 Conference in Cleveland This Weekend

October 23, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Update: All of the panel discussions will be streaming live online starting at 12:30 at Sports Talk Cleveland.

You’ve heard me allude to it in some posts this week, and you’ve seen me using the #sm360 hash tag more and more over the last few days, so here is the official post to let you know what the hell is going on.

This weekend is the Sports Media 360 Conference in Cleveland, organized by the Dugout Sports Show. Here is the official description from the DSS website:

SM360 is a conference bringing together mainstream sports journalists, sports bloggers and sports public relations professionals for a weekend. From panels consisting of the best bloggers and well respected journalists in the sports world, to how-to workshops ranging from getting your blog noticed, building credibility with teams’ public relations and communications professionals and starting a sports related podcast. There will also be workshops for the student interested in a career in sports journalism or photography.

I am very excited to be serving on one of the panel discussions, where I will be discussing how to build credibility as a blogger. What am I even more excited about is meeting so many great bloggers and truly accomplished individuals in the online realm, and learning from everyone in attendance.

It is going to be a great weekend.

You can follow Sports Media 360 on Twitter and use the #sm360 hash tag to track the weekend’s events. And if you’re in the Cleveland area, you can still sign up and attend. If you are interested in sports blogging and online media, I would definitely recommend coming out. It should be a great weekend.

I will probably be posting more on Twitter than here on MSF this weekend, so you won’t see as many new posts. But I’ll be back Monday with the all of the regularly scheduled weekly posts that your accustomed to.

Also, for anyone who is going to the Browns-Packers game on Sunday, I will be there early tailgating. Hit me up on Twitter (@jerodmsf) if you’re going to be there.

This may be my last post before I have to catch my plane. If so, have a great weekend everyone!
