YearlyKos Update Episode #1 Debuts

As promised in our previous announcement, the YearlyKos Update podcast Episode #1, hosted by FireDogLake blogger TRex, is now live on the YKC website at http://www.yearlykosconvention.org/podcasting and via iTunes. This first episode brings you up to date on some of the exciting things the Organizing Committee has been up to recently.

We begin with the audio from a short video posted in the Screening Series section of the YKC website that was produced by Mark Warner's Forward Together PAC providing an overview of the impressions several of last year's convention attendees had of the first YKC held in Las Vegas. Following this segment, TRex discusses the upcoming charity Ebay Auction to raise funds for this year's convention that begins this coming Monday, February 12th.

YearlyKos Update Podcast Set to Debut

The second annual YearlyKos Convention is being held in Chicago August 2-5, 2007, and recently the Organizing Committee began planning for the podcasting and video blogging for the gathering of political bloggers, their readers, friends, and politicians. The convention being held at the McCormick Place Convention Center in downtown Chicago is considered the pre-eminent event for Netroots movement activists, bloggers from the left side of the blogosphere, and the politicians who wish to reach out to the Internet savvy group that has begun to sway elections.
