Last week, Christine Lu and I had the pleasure of meeting with some great people involved with CNBloggerCon. This was related to our concept of bringing a small group of Western bloggers and social media people to Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou immediately prior to CNBloggerCon on November 15-16.
We want to do our best to support the committee’s goals and to support the Chinese blogosphere. Our own objective is to create a forum for Western bloggers and Chinese bloggers to build greater mutual understanding and relationships. We were encouraged by the discussions to feel like we had shared and compatible objectives! UPDATE: Clarification…just in case this is not crystal clear…Christine and I are NOT part of the CNBloggerCon committee, we were MEETING with members of the CNBloggerCon committee!
Here are some pictures from the meetups. I’ll blog more about the feedback later!
