Bloggers conference

Last weekend I attended the first Bloggers conference west of Waukesha. We had speakers on the subject of the law as it applies to blogging, or how not to get into trouble or sued. Several well known Bloggers shared their experiences and how they got into it. Next were a panel of Professors from some of the major colleges in Wisconsin relating their views on the subject and how it affects journalism in general. Theories on the future of blogging were also discussed. Next were some well known commentators and political pundits (elected officials if youy will) discussing their views on the effects bloggers have on the political scene. Finally the Bolgger of the Year was recognized although his identity had to be kept anonymous. I must say that it did peak our interest.
It was interesting to note that there were bloggers who were students, husbands, wives, and even professional journalists. Although this was targeted primarily to those who are interested in politics, there is every imaginable blog you can think of.
What else can I say but, Keep on Blogging.
