In recently listing a string of conferences where I'm speaking, I forgot to mention one that I'm attending even though I'm not speaking. OK, OK, I am an advisory fellow to the Society for New Communications Research (and a Founding Fellow, thank you very much) but Jen McClure and crew know how to put on a good (and by that I mean productive) event.

And thus ends the longest introductory sentence to a blog post that I have ever written.

So, any of you planning to join me at:

The 5th Annual New Communications Forum
April 27th - 29th, 2009
Marriott Hotel
4th & Mission
San Francisco, CA
http://www.newcommforum.com/2009/

If you are, register now with the discount code SNCRFRIEND to save $100.

That means you can participate in the entire 3-day conference for only $695 or go for one day for only $395.

NewComm Forum, like BlogHer, is celebrating its fifth anniversary, and in case you've never heard me mention it before: The very first NCF is where I met my BlogHer co-founder Jory Des Jardins for the very first time! Obviously a great networking event ;)

The point is to bring together thought leaders and decision makers to discuss the impact of social media and emerging communication tools, technologies, and models on PR and corporate communications, marketing and advertising, media and journalism, business, culture and society. The Forum provides an in-depth exploration of the future of communications. In its five year history, it has come to be known as one of the world’s leading conferences focusing on the latest trends in new emerging media and communications platforms.

Like BlogHer Business, New Comm Forum focuses pretty closely on real-world, practical information, including case studies, not just pie-in-the-sky.

So, will I see you there?
