The Word Spreads... The blogging community is really remarkable. I just sent out a little E-Mail asking for some digital "ink" about the PopTech blog, and in a few minutes I had three responses. David Weinberger wrote me a note saying he would be blogging from PopTech and would link to us. If you haven't read his latest book, i.e. "Small Pieces Loosely Joined" , put it on your must read list. 7:20:34 PM

PopTech   The last two years I have been going to what I think is the best conference in the country, i.e. PopTech.   Robert Scoble and I are going to create a PopTech weblog that will begin shortly, using Rick Klau's weblog template, and which should be jammed with great stuff about PopTech, the speakers and Camden, Maine. But to give you a sneak preview.... This year's PopTech website is at ...   http://www.poptech.org/home.jsp   The Weblog that we did last year is at ...   http://poptech.manilasites.com/   Last year ' s site is at ...    http://www.poptech.org/CTC_2001/Public/home.cfm    And if you really want a sense of the excellence of the content streaming video of last year is at ...    http://learnonline.umaine.edu/live/   You can also take a virtual tour of Camden at   http://camden.villagesoup.com/Tour/   I have been telling all of my friends about it, and the good news is that there are 500 seats, the bad new is that they go fast.   PopTech this year is Oct. 18-20, the weather is usually wonderful, with leaves in full color, Camden is a picture perfect town, and the whole experience is over the top.   After you have been once, you will probably think it's the best thing you have ever done.   I hope you can make it, as I would love to everyone there. Also, we are going to try to figure out how to hold a blogging event in conjuction with PopTech, so stay tuned for bulletins, and if you want more specific information, let me know. 6:12:05 PM
