The BlogHer in Second Life conference is excited to offer a new twist to this year's festivities- not only can you blog about your experience, but you are also encouraged to submit an iReport to CNN.com.

Oh, but that is NOT all!

CNN.com is offering some amazing training sessions for BlogHers:

Tuesday, July 1, 2 p.m. SLT/5 p.m. ET - SL iReporting 101
Tuesday, July 8, 2 p.m. SLT/5 p.m. ET - Avatar photojournalism
Tuesday, July 15, 2 p.m. SLT/5 p.m. ET - Virtual world newsgathering

How amazing is that???!!!!

CNN's Lila writes, "We sure hope to see you at the SL iReport hub. And while you're there, stop by the newly opened BlogHer office, where you can find out how to register for the conference and also grab a refreshing glass of virtual lemonade."

This is a fantastic opportunity for BlogHers to learn from one of the leaders in virtual world citizen journalism.

Don't forget to REGISTER for the BlogHer in Second Life conference, and drop by BlogHer's office hours at the iReport hub and pick up some BlogHer swag to dress up your avatar.

I know many of you have asked and YES, the BlogHer in SL conference has bling for your blog too!
