Hi Amy,

Thanks for volunteering.

>> Checked out the spreadsheet and I'm thinking I could assist with the Outreach/Marketing areas and working with Volunteers leading up to the event. I could do mailing list updates as well as updating web content once it's all built.  Also, maybe the website could include a tumblr blog page for highlighting presenters/workshops/sponsors as they come on board. I think there is a way to link tumblr (or other blogs) to a Facebook feed as well so would only have to update one thing. Hit em on all sides :) I'm not too sure about 'heading' anything at this point as it's a little new to me but possibly can take on more as it rolls out.

Sam says we should be ready to go any time now. :) Linking to a Facebook feed is not a bad idea. IFTTT should be able to do that. (In fact: https://ifttt.com/recipes/10336-add-a-new-wordpress-post-it-updates-your-facebook-page-with-a-link-post)

Help on outreach and marketing would be great too.  I've got some
things started on that and there are more tasks to do (some is listed
in Teamwork).  Let me know which ones interest you or add new ideas.
I'll send an update on the media partners which has a few things.

Best Regards, Eli
