pThe a href=”http://idsadiy2010.org”2010 IDSA National Conference/a is fast approaching (Aug 4-7). This year’s event is in one of our favorite cities, Portland, OR (home to the soon-to-be-revealed Core77 retail operation). We’ll be there, happily participating as a media sponsor and coordinating the a href=”http://www.core77.com/blog/events/idsa_national_conference_2009_day_2_update_14773.asp”Portfolio Review/a, as always. And of course, we’re putting the wraps on plans for our annual conference bash. /p

pThe conference theme is DIY – Threat or Opportunity? and addresses the booming DIY movement from all angles – technology, craft, crowdsourcing, independent producers, and more. They’ve put together a href=”http://idsadiy2010.org/speakers/”a great list of speakers/a, with more being added regularly. And they’re inviting participation through photo uploads and a a href=”http://idsadiy2010.org/participate/”DIY poster initiative/a. /p

pTo sweeten the deal, the IDSA is running a contest to give a free registration and hotel stay to a lucky attendee. The contest is open to all registrations completed now through July 6, so a href=”http://idsadiy2010.org/info/”sign up before next weekend/a to get in on that. See you in PDX!/pa href=”http://www.core77.com/blog/events/2010_idsa_national_conference_-_see_you_there_16818.asp”(more…)/a
