Reminder: Live Blogging Event Tomorrow Morning from the Built Green Conference

Just a reminder to tune in here tomorrow morning to hear news, quotes, and other gems & tidbits I learn at the Built Green Conference. My netbook arrived yesterday and by tonight I will be an expert at using it with my PPC as a wireless hub (or something).



Two days ago I posted about Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as pick for the keynote presentation "How business can utilize sound environmental policies and procedures through the adoption of green business practices." at 8:15 AM. All I can say is, I am glad they are providing breakfast because as a real estate professional I am more used to working the evening shift, not pulling an early morning one!!



Here is the agenda for tomorrow's conference. I haven't finalized my picks for the break-out sessions yet. Guess you will have to stay tuned!
