Oh drat - memory slipping

Argh. I still haven’t had time to blog all my thoughts about bloggercon. And my memory of the things I wanted to blog about is slipping away quickly - how do you deal with this?

Time is such a precious commodity - what I wouldn’t do for more time in a day. Then maybe I could continue to stay up working on work stuff until 3am -and- get some great blogging done.

One of the things I want to write about in the near future is about the personalization of technology: 250 million markets of 1.

EDIT: Ha ha very funny. No, I got to work a 9:30a today.

The long tail of BloggerCon

Wow… even though BloggerCon was just a day… the implications on my life are long lasting. The technologies to learn more about. The sites to start reading. The podcasts to try out. The philosphies to ponder. The money to be made? :)
1. Thanks to Adam Curry, now I need to check out Dawn and Drew. I’ve only heard great things - but I’ve also heard it’s NSFW.

2. Technorati and Feedster. Ok. Done that. My feed should be registering there.

3. Bloglines and other sites.

4. Newsgator’s website - I promised Greg I’d try it out.

5. ActiveWords. After all, Buzz is in my living room right now.

6. Check out more podcasting. Personally I’m against podcasting - I have some thoughts as to why it won’t improve my life. But I need to try it before I make any bold statements about it.

7. Too many to list :)
I’d write more, but right now I’m watching Andrew Sullivan on Bill Mahr. And I really should get back to paying attention to the conversion that’s in my apartment about blogging…

It’s been a long day

It’s been a long day. So many great sessions. So many great people. I’ll try to have notes about my BloggerCon experience tomorrow.

I’ll definitely attend again next year!

Don’t touch the microphone

Those who touched the microphone received a quick rebuke - leading to a “no touching” policy.

And then there’s Dave in the front.

This was a great BloggerCon… more to come.

What are your blogging values?

It goes unsaid that blogging is a form of journalism.
-You can only keep up a lie for so long.

Is that really true? Isn’t it possible to keep up a lie for so long that be comes reality. And how long is long?

-Is anonymity a good thing or a bad thing? Does it mattter?

That’s a tough question.

-How do we understand blogs that we’re not familiar with. How do we develop relationships? How do we develop trust? Can we be sure they’re not hoaxes. What are the social contracts?

-Is the blogosphere community too full of itself? Are blogs either good or bad? Are there definitive sites that are the true authorities on certain topics?

-Is anonymity a good thing? A bad thing? both? (yes!)

Tough questions in this burgeoning environment.

Do you write for readers?

Do you write for readers? Or you do you deliver content to consumers?

That’s excellent.

So… why are you blogging?
