More on live conference blogging

September 10th, 2006

Time to eat some humble pie (for non native English speaker see Wikipedia entry).
In a post on Friday I doubted the value of live conference blogging. Rod replied on the Bazaar site: “Nice to meet you at ALT-C & I look forward to your reflections - as we discussed at the conference our quick & dirty posts (see Informaticopia on http://www.rodspace.co.uk/blog/blogger.html and HI-Blogs http://www.hi-blogs.info/ may not provide depth of reflection but we (& quite a few users) do feel they have value.”
And of course he is right. The posts on Alt-C are of much use - I was quickly following up his links and downloading worksheets to use next week.
I think the truth is that I am no good at live conference blogging. For one thing my typing is just too poor. For a second I loose track. And it just doesn’t suit the way I write. So it’s horses for courses. Thanks Rod. Keep up the great service.
