Webloggers Deal Harvard Blog-Bores a Black Eye. Dave Winer's efforts to organize a conference called BloggerCon at Harvard's Berkman Law School are attracting the attention - and ire - of some bloggers.

BloggerCon didn't win any friends earlier this week either when it billed itself as "the first international conference on blogging" - in complete ignorance, apparently, of the highly successful and influential (not to mention international) Blogtalk conference in Vienna a few months ago.
