ON THE ROAD - SPEAKING IN LOS ANGELES
Los Angeles is big. Just huge. It's simply ginormous. Bar none, from a footprint standpoint, Los Angeles has to be the largest city I have ever visited.
I'm in LA this week speaking at "Building Strong Nonprofits," the 16th Annual Conference of the California Association of Nonprofits. As I did at eBay Live! in June, I am co-presenting with eBay University Instructor extraordinaire Steve Lindhorst. Joining us on stage for our two presentations is Eric Gazin, president and founder of Auction Cause, a LA-based company that manages high-profile charity auctions on eBay and elsewhere (in fact, last week Auction Cause managed Rush Limbaugh's "Harry Reid Smear Letter," which sold for $2,100,100, a record-breaking winning bid for charity auction listing through eBay Giving Works).
Here's a short description of both presentations:
Blogging Basics for Nonprofits: Everything You Need to Know. Blogs are helping nonprofit organizations communicate with and retain their members. In this interactive session, blogging experts show you how and why your organization should start and manage a blog of its own. Blogging is the perfect tool to build a loyal member base and boost your organization's bottom line.

Steve and Mikal, I am curious why the eBay pin set that you guys donated through eBay Giving Works did not go for $2,100,100? Inquiring minds want to know...
