Accelerating Change Conference & BloggerCon III Notes
Some of my blogging friends are attending the Accelerating Change conference in California today: sj and Shimon. I just checked my aggregator and the two, who happen to be sitting next to each other, posted to their blogs minutes apart, so their writings appear in my aggregator together. Coordinated effort, perhaps.
Both of these guys attended BloggerCon yesterday. Shimon has a few posts about it:
- His arrival, which I already mentioned.
- A list of blogs from the Emotional Life of Weblogs session
- A reflection on the conference
Berkman fellow and blog group participant Rebecca MacKinnon also wrote about several sessions:
- The beginning
- the journalism session
- blogs and politics
- the perennial making money with blogs
Eli also posted about it.
Perhaps they will write more in the next few days, too.
While I was visiting sj’s blog, I couldn’t help noticing he’s also getting hit with comment spam from the same spammer I am. I can tell from the consecutive numbers on the comments, he’s not getting the flood I’m receiving. Since Tuesday, I’ve received 116 comments, two or three of which, I think, have been real. I received about 80 in the first 48 hours. The deluge has slowed, but it’s still happening. I’m getting a little frustrated, but I accept that fact that if I’m going to have this blog, I will receive comment spam. I’m trying to keep up with deleting the posts, but there are going to be lags while I’m offline.
Addendum: Scott Johnson wrote a bit, too, as did Lisa Williams. Scott wrote a post mirroring what Lisa wrote.
