This week we’re focusing on New Media Nouveaux (NMN) bloggers. Perhaps the most enjoyable aspect of the event was interacting with my peers. There’s definitely a sense of companionship, and some of these folks have incredible things to say. In the past, I’ve written-up NMN participants Toby Bloomberg, Aaron Brazell, Alice Marshall (guest blogging on for me on July 30) and Andrea Morris, so this time I’m going to focus on some new faces.

The first NMN blogger I’d like to highlight is Qui Diaz, from Ogilvy’s 360 Digital Influence team. Super impressive, and really has some unique insights into blogging. You can check her out at Evange.LIST. Her write up of the event was really quite funny, “You + social media = passionate entanglement. Rowr!” I’d love to see what Qui could do in a WordPress environment.

One of the more pleasurable contacts there was Ken Yarmosh of Technosight. Ken is irreverent in all the right ways, blogs when he wants to, and doesn’t really care if you come back. Currently, he’s featuring a great write up on whether Virtual Goods are here to stay.

Ken was there for his day job, Viget Labs (which built Squidoo for Seth Godin, as well as numerous pop stars’ web sites). He did a nice write up of NMN on the Viget blog, Four Labs. We’ve got an initiative underway with Viget, which we’ll blog about at a later date.

Pamela Sorensen was also there. This socialite knows how to blog, driving her business consultancy and branding herself as an elite Washington Insider. Read Pamela’s Punch if you ever want to get a feel for what the real DC is like… Networking and social events, of course!

Kim Hart’s a technology writer with the Washington Post, but also one of the better journalist bloggers out there. Check out her stuff on the Post. One thing about the Post’s blogs… They need to allow you to tag your URL when you comment. Otherwise, why bother?
