I got to see Dave Winer speak at in Redmond this previous Monday. It was more of a discussion or forum than it was a talk. Dave spoke perhaps for 15 minutes on the pervasivness of blogging and the effect it had on the Dean campaign and then opened the floor up to dicsussion and questions regarding blogging. I should probably mention that Dave is the creator of RSS, a co-creator of SOAP and Userland. Some interesting things that came up were an unnecessarly long and annoying dicussion comparing blogging to SharePoint (what’d you expect at a Microsoft event?), an interesting perspective on how blogs will compliment main stream media, and I think the best definition of blogging I’ve heard yet: blogs are the unedited voice of the author.
