I’m hanging in Vancouver, Canada at the awesome social media and blogging conference Northern Voice conference.

Northern Voice is a two-day, non-profit personal blogging and social media conference that’s being held at the Forestry Sciences Centre, 2424 Main Mall, UBC main campus, Vancouver, Canada on February 22-23, 2008. This is the 4th annual incarnation of this event, see the 2005, 2006 and 2007 websites for previous information.

The thing that makes Northern Voice great is the people. Last year, both the speakers and the attendees were incredible and I can’t wait to catch up with some of those folks again this year. I learned a lot, shared a lot and made some new friends and acquaintances.

Come talk to me about cleaning up your inbox with Boxbe’s social anti-spam tools or just to say hi.

I travel to a lot of conferences throughout the year, but Gnomedex is held in my backyard here in Seattle. Gnomedex is the self proclaimed “conference of the blogosphere.” While a little geeky, generally the signal to noise ratio is high on the signal side.

If you are at the conference stop by and say hi. Here’s a picture of me and you can follow my comments about the conference on Twitter and pictures on Flickr.
