Tonight Avi and I will be flying out to Vegas for Webmaster World’s Pubcon 2009. The conference opens tomorrow morning with a keynote speech by Tony Hsieh who is the CEO of Zappos.com. Once again, we will be live blogging for Barry’s Search Engine Roundtable, so make sure to check out the site for the full conference schedule.

Last month, at SMX East here in New York City, we used a new live blogging program called Cover It Live, which worked like an IM window embedded into Barry’s site. It’s a very efficient live blogging tool that we will be using again. Session viewers can log into Cover It Live during the sessions and participate in the discussion online.

The expo hall will be open on Wednesday and Thursday, so if you see us walking around, be sure to say hi.
