  • then starting at 8pm Free Culture is hosting an artshow, Sharing is Daring
  • At 9 the Bloggership conference is having a “meet the bloggers” happy hour. Erica at least is planning to do all 3… (and without aid of a time machine, even!)(Erica is out sick so won’t be doing any of it, so you should go and make her jealous!)
    • From Eugene Volokh: Bloggers-Meet-Readers on Thursday, April 27, 9 pm, in Cambridge: A bunch of bloggers, including some of us Conspirators, will be in Cambridge for http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/home/bloggership this Thursday and Friday (April 27 and 28), and we plan to hang out at the Zephyr Lounge in the Hyatt Regency Cambridge, 575 Memorial Drive — that’s the hotel at which we’ll be staying — from 9 pm or so to about 11 pm.
  • Berkman’s got a conference on 4/28: Bloggership: How Blogs are Transforming Legal Scholarship. It’s focusing pretty heavily on legal (and academic) blogging, but is free/open to public.

    • Someone who can fill us in on what’s happening with China and the Internet (RMack? Eric Priest when he returns from Asia?)
