Today I’m hanging out a WordCamp-like event in Austin, Texas called BlogathonATX.
The best part is that several of the sessions are being live streamed throughout the day.
Beginning in just a few minutes, check in to the USTREAM channel for the following:
10:30am CST – Branding Yourself Online
1:30pm CST – Long Term Blog Maintenance
4:30pm CST – Blogging for Business
*All times are Central Standard Time which is -06:00 GMT
There are also two WordPress specific sessions that may be streamed during the day, and if so, I’ll update the schedule above. These are WordPress 101 and WordPress Premium Themes.

Fail.
Why do I expect these live streams EVER to work as advertised?
I know. I see them scrambling to get it to work. It always seems much easier than apparently it actually is :(
Because Ustream don’t work well on wordpress if at all – No chance on WP MU install lucky if a plugin or a theme work’s
Well how cool is this! I’m still gathering my info for my post and came across yours! Pretty cool since I was sitting right next to you and never caught your name.
