The WebbyConnect Conference in Laguna Beach Written By: Ryan Babenzien 2007-10-04 00:45:15 I just finished listening to none other than blog superstar, Arianna Huffington, give her keynote at the first annual WebbyConnect conference in beautiful Laguna Beach, CA.
Prior to this appearance, I never really knew anything about her. I haven't spent much time at her site, www.huffingtonpost.com. Sure, I was familiar with her and of course I had heard of her site, I just never used it as a news source. But now, after hearing her say "bullshit" to her audience, I'm a huge fan! This conference is not cheap. $2500 not cheap. But we, at The Panelist, being clever and all were able to get a press pass (thanks Patrick), which costs us nothing. With that, I feel obligated to do my part and do a daily recap of the WebbyConnect.
