Would be cool to add a “Like” button to eBay seller stores. We can “Like”/share individual listings now but not stores. #eBayOL

eBay: On Location 2011 kicks off tomorrow in Las Vegas. Promising to be bigger and better than last year’s four events, this year’s eBayOL festivities and learning tracks are all set for Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino.
I get in tomorrow morning at 10:30am and will be in town until Noon on Friday and can’t wait to catch up with old friends and meet new ones. Please, let’s catch up and chat ecommerce, eBay, (and maybe share a beer or two). This year, we’re very excited that @eBay_Andy will be officially representing eBay Ink with me so we can bring you twice the videos, photos and coverage!
Whether or not you’re attending, here are some key Twitter handles to follow over the next few days – if you’re not already:
Also, be sure to follow the hashtag #ebayol for all discussion coming out of this week’s events. We’ll also be uploading video to our eBay Ink YouTube channel and photos to our eBay Ink Flickr feed.
In addition to the daytime seminars and educational sessions, there will also be the official opening reception at the Chateau Beer Gardens in the Paris Hotel; Wednesday, April 13, 8 – 11pm. eBay Ink is one of the official sponsors of this event so appropriately it’s at a “beer garden.” Please RSVP to the event.
Finally, for those of you around on Thursday night, there will be our usual Super Secret Beer Tweetup for eBayOL attendees. Be sure to follow @ebayinkblog on Twitter to find out where and when.
Cheers!

I was fortunate enough to attend all four of last year’s eBay: On Location events and live-blog for folks here on eBay Ink and on Twitter:
I’ve talked about it a lot here on Ink over the years but this is one of the most rewarding jobs I could ever have and that’s because I have the good fortune to be able to travel and meet people face-to-face that use eBay every day to buy, sell or both. I tried to sum this up in a post immediately following the fourth and final eBay: On Location of 2010 with “What’s in an eBay Feedback score…?”
Well, I get to do it again this year because eBay: On Location is back. The first one kicks off in Las Vegas on April 13 & 14. In addition to the many stage presentations, break-out sessions, networking opportunities and guest speakers, I’m hoping to rally our eBay Ink Social Media Sellers that are in attendance for a panel at an after-party craft beer tweetup on the night of the 14th. Look for more info on that closer to the date. In the meantime, check out all the info and take advantage of early bird registration at http://ebayonlocation.com. (More …)
