Bloggercon goes down a treat

Dave Winer reports enthusiastically about the second international meeting of bloggers held in San Francisco yesterday.

We soon hope to get some analytical appraisal from Corporate Engagement’s Trevor Cook.

Last night's opening dinner was wonderful. One of those dinners when everything came together,

We come together to talk about all kinds of stuff. Weighty issues, new technology, professions, tools, but like all other serious subjects, they just serve to distract from the real reason we worked so hard and traveled so far to be with each other. We came to fall in love.

And this is something humans do very well, very easily. Last night's bright bouquet of flowers will be gone in a flash, by the end of the weekend we'll all be back in front of our usual screens.

But when we read something written by another blogger, now there will be a better chance that we know something about them, something important, that they're a person, like we are, doing the best they can.
