At 10:45 am Vegas time (1:45 Eastern)
today, I will be presenting a breakout session with the admittedly dry title “Editing
Online Content for the New SEO” at the annual conference of the American Copy Editors
Society (ACES).
This is my first time presenting and only the second time I’ve
been to the conference. My nerves are starting to get edgy, but it’s still
nowhere near the worries I had about getting through airport security to get
here. Apparently, I fear the TSA.
(Frankly, the main reason I’m writing this post is because
it has been too long since I’ve put anything up here, and I don’t want anyone
who visits this blog after seeing my presentation to find it stale.)
At any rate, if you were unable to attend the ACES conference
and want to get a glimpse at what my presentation is about, check out my recent
post over at DigitalRelevance, 5
Reasons Hummingbird Could Bring Back Copy Editors.
And don’t worry; I’ll soon be posting with more regularity
once again. You can look forward to a conference wrap-up post or two, wherein
share some of the great information I learned, complain about an overlong,
labyrinthine lunch walk too and from an In-N-Out Burger, and get al fanboy
about rubbing elbows with some of my editorial heroes.
For those of you who attended my presentation, welcome to
Logophilius! Please comment below and tell me what I did right and what I did
wrong.
