So, BloggerCon is coming up in October and I got an invite for it in my email over the weekend. The good part about it is that I really think it could be an interesting thing to go to. I've definitely really gotten into the weblog thing and have used them for all kinds of things. The only issue is that it's kind of expensive. Bryant posted about this over at Population: One and I somewhat agree with him, though can see know things like this can easily get expensive to run. The part about it that really sucks is that I'm unemployed (just hit my year anniversary) and there's just no way I can swing this, even though I think it would be very worthwhile (as both a learning experience and a networking experience). Dave Winer posted about the idea of micro-sponsorships, which I think is a really interesting idea that I may pursue more. Or maybe I'll see if they need any volunteers to help getting set up in exchange for attending. Since I'm local (like 5 blocks away) I may be able to help out somehow. We shall see.
