Craig Newmark Announced as PRSA International Keynote

The Public Relations Society of America (PRSA) International Conference is coming up this Oct. 22-25 in Detroit. The industry group has announced that Craigslist Founder Craig Newmark will be a keynote speaker at the event and, “will be sharing his views on the future of online community and commerce.”

You may recall Newmark was recognized as a “Golden Boa” honoree at last October’s mediabistro.com 10th Anniversary party. Read the interview he did at the time, “How Does Customer Service Drive Craiglist’s Success.”

PRSA conference info is available here.
