So, I went to the political blogger event I mentioned yesterday. Although the panelists were all obviously bright people, the discussion was mostly confused and badly focused. Ah well, what can you do?
Anything of note? Well, at one point, blogging got so strongly associated with spontaneity and informality that you could be forgiven for wondering whether either virtue would have made it into the world without the assistance of the internet. Phew! Thank goodness we live in the modern age! And the question period afterwards had a decent question or two, but - oy vey - a few comments that were just really beyond strange. Oh yes, and did you know that blogs will save the world - or not!
I did give my complements afterwards to Daniel Radosh, who has a funny blog. That was a pleasure, but, I confess, not a pleasure worth $15. I'm sure he would understand.
UPDATE: OK, you can check out how unfair and biased my account was by reading these notes from the event. Or not.
