I got a million and a half invitations to the Big Blogger Bash in Raleigh the other day, but unfortunately I could not make it.

I am back from the 4th ConvergeSouth, the do-not-miss Greensboro conference about the Web, blogging, journalism and community (and the model/inspiration for our own science blogging conferences, including the third one) . Big kudos to Sue Polinsky, Ed Cone and the cast of thousands for putting…
