Mikel Maron: "Weblogs and Location". Mikel is a blogger I've known and liked for a while and I'm meeting for the first time at this conference. Mikel's work with maps and RSS is quite cool.

It's only when I was discussing with some other bloggers at lunch today that I remembered that I liked BlogTalk 1.0 because of the people you can hang out with, not only the presentations.

Torill Mortensen. Finally somebody is talking about Dave in a keynote!

Btw, Dave is thinking about a European BloggerCon.

Stephanie Hendrick and Therese Örnberg described the Moblogging Jokkmokk 2004 experience. Some interesting audio posts.

Elmine Winjia (about making blogging tools easier to use): "I'm using MovableType, but only because my boyfriend is a geek".

Blogtalk 2.0 - 3

Jörg Kantel and Jon Hoem have both talked about video weblogs (vog).

A vog is a video blog where video in a blog must be more than video in a blog

Jon is envisioning a new kind of web tool which allows users to compose videos using bits and pieces of other videos which have been available under a CC license. They are using SMIL.

Stephan J. Schmidt delivered an interesting presentation on bottom-up knowledge management with weblogs and wikis. I must talk to him before the conference is over.

My favourite German blogger is now on stage.

Thomas Burg just opened the day, Mark Bernstein is delivering the keynote. 7 people on iChat Rendezvous window. 16 bluetooth devices in range. Whew.

The network in the room is currently down, not sure when this post will make it to my blog.

I wonder if people at conferences is more distracted by:

• having wifi access and surfing the web
• not having wifi access and try to get the attention of somebody to get it fixed
