clock | December 1, 2007There are 49 days until the Science Blogging Conference. The wiki is looking good, the Program is shaping up nicely, and there is more and more blog and media coverage already. The anthology should be published in time for the event. There are already 161 registered participants and if you do not register soon, it may be too late once you decide to do so (we'll cap at about 200). Between now and the conference, I am highlighting some of the people who will be there, for you to meet in person if you register in time.

[Bumped up for visibility - and it makes it easier for me to keep updating with new entries] Now that the Science Blogging Conference is getting very close, it is time to remind you that the new edition of the Science Blogging Anthology, "Open Laboratory 2007", is in the works and is (still) accepting your suggestions.
Although the entire process, from the initial idea all the way to having a real book printed and up for sale, took only about a month, the Open Laboratory 2006 was a great success. This year, we have had much more time so we hope we will do an even better job of it.

clock | November 25, 2007Alan Kellogg has a cool contest for you:
Bora still has some 55 days to go before the conference, and still he posts about the folks coming. Will he have groups and/or individuals to write about by the time the conference gets here? Not to worry, Bora will find conference goers to write about, the question is who?
That is for us to make wild, inaccurate guesses about. In this contest,Twitting Bora, it is your goal to come up with the wildest, most outrageous, least likely participants at the Science Blogging Conference. Who (or what) will Bora announce as being at the conference this year the…

Before I return to highlighting some of the people who will be there, let me finish with this Thanksgiving series of posts about the Friday pre-conference events - leaving the best for last, perhaps. If you look at the Program, you will see that Friday afternoon (after the Blogging101 session and before the Friday dinner) is reserved for Lab Tours.
As all the Lab Tours are occurring simultaneously, you have to choose only one - and what choices!

clock | November 23, 2007There are 57 days until the Science Blogging Conference. Continuing with the Thanksgiving break in highlighting some of the people who will be at the Conference in January (and the list is growing - already at 144 registered participants), here is some more about what will be happening on the Friday pre-conference day.
But first, I have to say Happy Seventh Blogiversary to my friend Anton. Yes, you read it right: SEVENTH! Holy cow! He is, like, in bloggy years, a Methuselah with a long white beard! And he and Erin had to make some tough decisions recently - to stay or to move to…
clock | November 22, 2007There are 58 days until the Science Blogging Conference. Since it is a holiday, I decided to take a little break in introducing people who have registered so far and instead showcase some parts of the program - especially stuff that is happening on Friday, January 18th (as everyone's focus is on the Big Saturday event).
If you look at the Program page, you will see that we have lots of cool stuff organized for Friday - Blogging 101 (and 102) sessions and lab tours (more about those tomorrow).
But, if you manage to come to town by about 7pm on Friday, please join us for the Friday dinner.…
