Folks, let's leave the ballot stuffing to the professionals. Please just use your own name. With all due respect to the great cities of Boston, NYC and all points west I think we should do D.C.
1. It would be an opportunity to do outreach in the DC, Maryland and Virginia areas. We can make connections with the folks down south (southeaster portion of the U.S.) which would once again expand our networking opportunities. 2. Mighty fine eating in the region. We could chomp without worrying about skimping. 4. Helps to reduce the costs for those on the African, Asian and European terra firma, plus it will do wonders for their rumps (not as much air time) 5. I got to get out of L.A. I love the Smithsonian Museums and I got sniff some of that Library of Congress book dust. 6. If we don't want to talk to no stinking politicians we don't have to. They aren't likely to be in town anyway and we don't have a PAC or slush fund money they can belly up to. Same with the M$M - I don't think they like us especially that D.C. crowd that sucked up for the past seven years. 7. Those that are outside of the D.C. area can help with the small things like putting up info on flights, hotel suggestions, long distance PR or make a video about the event. If we all do a little somethings a big thing can happen. Pick one small thing, do it and then walk away. 8. Let not be so linear about this. If 30 to 50 folks want to go to D.C. we could have a great time! If another 50 want to go to Boston then that can happen. There will be Vlogging BBQs, BarCamp and other chances to meet & talk with folks. If VloggerCon doesn't happen folks will still get together. But if the group mind says we are heading for D.C. then lets collectively make that happen.
