The First International Jewish Bloggers Convention

Wow. Wow!

The First International Jewish Bloggers Convention is over. Some 200 bloggers participated in person, and 1400 (that’s right, 1400) bloggers participated and watched the convention via the Webcast.

The speakers were excellent, and there was something for everyone.

What I walked away with was how important and influential bloggers really are.

Former Israeli Prime Minister (and Prime Minister Candidate) Benjamin Netanyahu heard about the conference from reading one of our bloggers, and as a result called up and asked to speak to this audience.

That is the power of blogging and a clear indication that blogging has gone mainstream.

We look forward to running this again.
