live from Wien

I am listening to David Weinbereger's keynotes. At the same time I'm reporting the conferecne live in my Persian weblog--you know, i have many more readers over there. David's points about social and psychological aspects of weblogs are exactly the same things that Persian blogoshpere has been involved with from the begining. Isn't it amazing that we are so close to each other despite our physical and socio-political distance.

- I don't quite like that people are blogging live while speakers are speaking. I find it a llittle bit rude and distracting. So I won't post anything while I'm listening to the speakers. UPDATE: Let me correct myslef. it's rude, it's just a little bit wierd that wehn you are talking, you have no eye-contact with the audience.

- By the way, here is my presentation, Weblogs, an Iranian Perspective. Open it with MS Word and view it in Outline mode. Don't link to it directly now please, because I might change the URL soon.
