Travel Blog Exchange

We are very excited to announce the fantastic speakers for TBEX'09 on July 26th in Chicago! Event co-host Debbie Dubrow and I will be moderating the sessions which cover things like: the difference between travel journalism and blogging; keeping a lively travel blog; working with PR professionals and balancing ethics; and using your trip video footage to become a vlogger. Oh, and did I mention this event is totally free for attendees? And that we'll also livestream it for those who can't make it to Chicago? Well those things are true!

So without further ado...here's our confirmed list of speakers for the event:
