Live From New Orleans: Follow the AAN Convention Here

NEW ORLEANS – We're preparing to welcome almost 400 attendees, exhibitors, speakers and sponsors – one of the largest turnouts in years – for our annual convention here in New Orleans, which kicks off tomorrow.

We have a fabulous program and speakers lined up. If you haven’t yet perused it, the updated program is here and the speaker bios are here.

If you're attending, or even if you're following the festivities from afar, this year you have several ways to keep up with all of the latest happenings:

Saints & Sinners Mobile App: Thanks to Polar Mobile, AAN has a convention mobile app for iPhone, Droid, WP7 and Blackberry. Features include: event schedule, speaker bios, convention news, Twitter feeds and maps to outside events:

Twitter: #AAN2011 is the hashtag for the convention. Accept no substitutes. Every time you tweet from the convention without using the official hashtag, a gulf oyster dies.

Live Blog: On Friday and Saturday, AAN web editor Jason Zaragoza and editorial intern Ilissa Gilmore will be live blogging from the sessions using CoverItLive. Tune in here to follow all of the action.

See you here in New Orleans.
