I need your advice on something. I'm a blogger for <a href="http://KMPblog.com" rel="nofollow">KMPblog.com</a>, and I am planning a Blogger Event in NYC, for bloggers and blog readers to network. I am asking bloggers to come up with 50 promo items to be put in a gift bag to give to the first 50 guests to arrive to the event. The event is also to help promote our blogs and get more traffic. I am also trying to get some sponsors or other bloggers that cannot attend the event to provide items for the gift bags as well. I want your opinion on whether you think this event is a great idea and where/who I can ask to sponsor my event.<br>Thanks in advanced,<br><br>Arie Rich<br><a href="http://KMPBlog.com" rel="nofollow">KMPBlog.com</a><br>twitter.com/arierich Hi,
