I came home from the conference with several ideas, especially for blog posts, but I thought it would be good to create three goals, as a result from attending the event. I think all of these goals go well with the beginning of year goals I created in January.
- Start a Facebook page for my blog. (I actually accomplished this yesterday during a disappointing over time of the ISU Cyclones basketball game. Thanks to Sara Broers for her recommendations for starting this.) So be sure to "Like" my Facebook page.
- Start a regular post segment about my pregnancy. I realized at the conference that I am 26 weeks pregnant and really haven't talked about it except in my initial announcement post. Well this is going to change. I love being pregnant and am happy that I am, so why am I not sharing this with everyone? So look for my first installment of Hump Day Bump Report on Wednesday.
- To actually read my camera manual, front to back, all the way through. I love taking photos and actually carry my camera's manual in my camera bag but I only use it to look up what I have want to find information about. So I have decided in order to understand and utilize my camera better I need to read my camera manual all the way through.
The AgChat Foundation's missing statement is: “Empowering farmers and ranchers to connect communities
through social media platforms" and I think that is what this Upper Midwest Regional Conference was set-up to do. This regional conference was the first in a series of regional conferences
offered by the AgChat Foundation. The
Foundation decided to start hosting regional conferences so those who were
unable to attend their national conference due to location or timing, had a
chance to connect and learn about agriculture in social media.
