Dave Weinberger on Blogging's Rubicon
Dave Weinberger is one of the convention bloggers at the DNC this week. He believes that blogging the convention has changed how blogging is viewed in some fundamental ways. He writes:

Arrived at OSCON2004
I arrived in Portland a few hours ago for OSCON 2004. Today is all tutorials and I'm not signed up for any of them, but tonight is Larry Wall's famous State of the Onion talk and a talk by Paul Graham on his new book Hackers and Painters: Big Ideas from the Computer Age.
