xPotomac 15 is being held on this June 12. and I have enjoyed attending this event very much
There is a good line up of speakers and t he keynote this year is author Mark W. Schaefer, who just released The Content Code, which highlights how the marketing world has gone mad. In his new book, Mark challenges communicators to break through information density by thinking about audiences in a new way

xPotomac will be at Georgetown University Campus,the Healey Family Student Center, which includes an in-building parking garage. Kudos to the event host and sponsor the Communications Culture and Technology program. My friend Shana Glickfield, cofounder of the Beekeeper Group, will again emcee xPotomac. Yay!
