In the annals of internet viraldom, some of you might remember one particular sweet moment a few years back called Black People Love Us. That site was awesome, and in its nostalgia-inspired frenzy of guest invitations ROFLCon II would probably be remiss to not extend an invitation.

The man behind that site, Jonah Peretti, has been seriously busy since that project — he was later the creator of Buzzfeed and co-founder of a little site you may have heard of before called The Huffington Post.

We’ve been trying to snag him for some time, and I’m glad to announce today that Jonah will be joining us for ROFLCon II in April! He’ll be speaking about his work, and revealing some research that he’s been working with recently on the topic of multiple memes, and exploring the elusive problem of Being Successful More Than Once On The Internet. I’m told that there will be sweet, sweet data in abundance.

I’ve got the guest list updated, as per usual. More to come this week, you’ll hear it here first.
