What do you call a buncha HR nerds in one place?

June 23, 2008 · Filed Under For the love of HR 

If you are interested in following the SHRM conference, check out PunkRockHR (on Twitter as well) and Cheezhead. It is almost as good as being there.

Strike that, nothing is better than being there but it is going to be as close as you will be if you are in the office like me.
