From the Blogosphere
Focusing on the progressive netroots as the next wave of political influence, YearlyKos is pleased to announce the agenda for the June convention in Las Vegas, Nevada.
With a combination of panel discussions, workshops, Q & A sessions and presentations available, attendees will have access to the knowledge and expertise from some of the most influential individuals in and outside of the blogosphere. Progressive bloggers will learn a variety of approaches to impact the political landscape and shape the future of America.
The Yearly Kos convention lasts from June 8– 11 and has attracted progressive bloggers and blog readers from around the country. Many will have the opportunity to meet one another in person for the first time, as well as learn ways that they can use their influence as a group. What is unique about this convention is that individual netizens have the opportunity to share their vision and perspective with leaders such as keynote speaker, Minority Leader Harry Reid.
