I mentioned Friday that I was traveling to Jackson, TN for this conference and as you read this, I am on the road.
I mentioned that I would be blogging and twittering from there during the conference. given that, you might want to check out my twitter feed: twitter.com/artrogers, or the missioscapes twitter feed: twitter.com/missioscapes, or even these guys, who will also be there: twitter.com/martyduren & twitter.com/micahfries.
My plan is to twitter live, either through my own feed or through the MissioScapes feed, or both. Then I’ll recap thoughts in a blog post later.

*There is one caveat. I am also dealing with a great many things personal and professional while on this trip. I am not guaranteeing that I will be at every session to tweet/blog. I fully intend to be at the ones I perceive as most relevant. This is not to discount any of the speakers or their topics, but to simply let everyone know that other things may take precedence for me.
