BloggerCon IV: Making Money

Lots of good discussion going on in the "making money" session that seems to always show up at BloggerCon events. The point that keeps coming up over and over again, that your "personal brand" is where things come from. I can't agree enough. I wouldn't have ever reached a point where I was asked to write at Weblogs, Inc., or have my job working on new media tools and strategies at MWW Group.

Chris Pirillo made some big points as he walked in the door during the session about how he got things rolling for Lockergnome and all the other things that he does.

We got into talking about advertising networks a bit, and some sites such as Nashville is Talking and Mothership BBQ and how the communities they're about are into them.

BloggerCon IV: Saturday A.M.

Things are moving right along on Saturday morning here at BloggerCon IV in San Francisco, with a slightly smaller crowd (a) it's Saturday and b) it's 8 something in the morning) than on Friday. But folks are rolling in the room bit by bit, and we're talking about some examples where people should be "filled in" on the various industry "mysteries" that exist, whether they be software or code, billing codes at the hospital, etc.

I'd have to agree with Chris Thilk, who commented in the IRC that it's only useful to have these details if you're interested in having them. So just like a lot of things related to blogging, it's all about access - not necessarily the content in question.
