DC Residents Gather at the Park at Fourteenth to Take a Break from the Elections and Celebrate a New Generation of Local Influencers

Headlining Bloggers to Include DC City Blog, K Street Kate, Brightest Young Things and Many More!

In DC, the mainstream publications are great resources on local cultural events like art exhibitions and theater performances but when people want to read about the hottest restaurants or clubs, they tend to visit blogs

So what we are trying to do is produce an event that allows them to meet and engage with their favorite bloggers face-to-face.

Washington, DC (Billboard Publicity Wire / PRWEB) October 16, 2008 -- According to recent studies, over 20 million Americans read blogs every single day. When considering that many of the most popular blogs are political in nature, it should come as no surprise that millions of blog readers are located in Washington, DC. As a result, DC residents are flocking to blogs in increasing numbers to keep up with what's new and exciting in the local nightlife scene.
