BloggerCon IV, Day 1: National Anthem
| | Theme: New Orleans 
|
| | Notes:
|
| | Song - don't know what it's going to be
|
| | First song was Take me out to the ball game, in Boston. Sox lost.
|
| | Last one was This Land is Your Land
|
| | Nashville (we have 3 from there today)
|
| | Uncle Dave leads the happy bloggers in song...
|
| | Terry Heaton: All you need is love.
|
| | Ponzi: Hokey Pokey. (How long before somebody posts the video?)
|
| | Dave went to Tulane there
|
| | It was destroyed. But music lives.
|
| | interactive, no audience. Just participants.
|
| | Natural to continue doing what we do at other confs. Let's don't.
|
| | Format is, discussion leader stands in front for 10-15 minutes, to warm things up. Then others chime in and the DL hands off. Nobody gets nervous. Nobody makes speeches.
|
| | No pitches. Not commercial. There are plenty of those.
|
| | tendency to get carried away once one vendor starts off
|
| | This is a users' conference. We clear the space for the users' POV.
|
| | always try to come from your own place as a user
|
| | Doc's role as a technographer
|
| | Doc is everybody's slave. Not salve.
|
| | monitor holds the mike. he or she owns it.
|
| | come up with an action ite3m list
|
| | No expectations from the conf
|
| | could be wonderful, surprising...
|
| | Everything is on the record
|
| | Everybody is presumed to be a blogger
|
| | no distinction between blogger and journalist
|
| | everything is on the record. if you want it off, take it elsewhere and get permission
|
| | Grateful Dead style. So on the record that you can bring your camcorder and vidblog or 'cast yourself.
|
| | Not limited to blogging. There are related practices... videoblogging, etc.
|
| | subjects related to blogging
|
| | blogging is at the center, but everything peripheral is on topic too.
|
| | not promoting any particular technology Ñ those are for other, tech confs
|
| | blogher (July 28th and 29th - Doc's Birthday)
|
| | reflect on how much blogging has changed since 18 months ago at Stanford. Now we have myspace, LiveJournal. The practice is more mainstream.
|
| | Dave: changing use of tools, roles, what we have in common. We all use blogs, search engines, photo management tools, bookmarking... share our experiences...
|
