tech evangelism conf

I find this kind of bizarre

GNoTE (Global Network of Technology Evangelists) was founded to foster technology evangelism and help establish best practices for technology outreach in the industry.

Technology Evangelism is a thing?  A thing big enough to have a conference about?
I would say "a thing big enough to have a blog", but is there anything that doesn't have a blog?

I can't believe that after writing this whole posting, I look in the gnote blog comments and discover Paul Miller beat me to this topic.
Paul, we've got to stop meeting like this.
