New side event : tour the newsroom of the International Herald Tribune

Dear Les Blogeurs,

Those attending the conference are cordially invited to tour the newsroom of the International Herald Tribune www.iht.com

The world's widest circulated general interest newspaper, the IHT was founded in Paris in 1887 and is now printed in more than 30 cities and distributed in more than 150 countries daily. The visit will include a tour of the newsroom and discussion with editors about the issues involved in producing the paper, which has been fully owned by The New York Times since 2004.

I will lead people from the conference following the last panel on Monday and return in time for the dinner.

There are limited spaces and the newspaper's security team needs names in advance, so please let me know if you would like to attend.

Sincerely,

Tom Crampton
Correspondent International Herald Tribune

What about Blogging Planet ?

Well, initially Les Blogs 2.0 was a combination of "Around the blog" organised by my consultancy Blogging Planet, an event planed for october and Loïc's set of conference "Les Blogs" which first edition happen in april this year.

That's why till recently the banner showed "Les Blogs 2.0", organised by Six Apart and Blogging Planet.

But I've been contacted by Edelman in september and I decided to join them and to leave my consultancy. For that reason, as my alliance partners Elizabeth Albrycht, Neville Hobson and I decided to  dissolve Blogging Planet and to follow our own path, it didn't make sense anymore to keep our brand associated to the event.

That's why Blogging Planet is no more associated to the event, but rather Elizabeth and I ourselves as "person", still strongly involved in the organisation of the event at Loïc's side.

I just wanted to clarify the situation and to answer to many emails I am getting from people or friends asking if I am still involved: YES, and I can tell you that the last step was the Wifi topic and that it is solved, we'll have a great hotspot !

Guillaume
