Welcome to the Web coverage of the ninth annual ACES conference in Hollywood, which many of the 504 people who attended are hailing as the most educational and most entertaining ACES gathering yet.
The star-studded lineup of speakers included the "Editing the Future" panel of newspaper industry leaders, who discussed upholding the craft in changing times. The poolside reception, ballroom banquet and nightclub "wrap" party added a touch of glitz befitting the Tinseltown location. And Hank Glamann's farewell address and a record-breaking silent auction provided some drama.
The post-conference party at the Highlands nightclub was THE place to be. Click here to get in on the action! Much of the action is chronicled in the nearly 20 stories and more than 200 photos on these Web pages. Construction is now complete, so grab a beverage, kick back and start exploring.
Recent changes include:
The addition of photo galleries from conference activities and the Saturday night social event.
Several ACES members have posted their conference blogs and photos on the Web. Here are links to three:
