Tickets available for 2011 Northern Voice blogging and social media conference in Vancouver

Tickets are now available for the 2011 Northern Voice conference on personal blogging and social media.

Today (March 1), organizers released 250 early bird tickets—and they’re sure to go fast.

The seventh annual event will take place on May 13 and 14 at the Life Sciences Centre on the University of British Columbia’s Point Grey campus.

Organizers are looking for conference speakers and are accepting submissions until March 14.

More than 500 people attended last year’s Northern Voice, which featured over 60 speakers, including Chris Messina, the inventor of hashtags.
