In response to the overwhelming interest in last year’s event, Nefesh B''Nefesh (an organization dedicated to revitalizing Aliyah from North America and the UK, in cooperation with the Jewish Agency and the government of Israel) is hosting the second International Jewish Bloggers Convention on Sunday, September 13th, 2009. This year’s convention, which is powered by Webads, will focus on ‘Uniting the Jewish Community through Social Media’ and will feature Senior Adviser to the Prime Minister of Israel Mr. Ron Dermer as keynote speaker. The event will be broadcasted live on the web to thousands of Jewish bloggers worldwide.

The convention will include workshops on various topics on blogging, twitter and social media tools; panel discussions on Aliyah and Social Media; and a comedy performance by renowned humorous blogger Benji Lovitt.

“The tremendous response to last year’s convention showed us that there was a huge demand for this kind of event” noted Danny Oberman, Nefesh B’Nefesh’s Executive VP of Israel Operations. “This is a great opportunity to enhance our relationship with the blogging and twittering community, and enhance the presence of Aliyah in that media.”
