Emerging Technology Conference: New Media Sticking It to Old Media. But How's the Food?
Nothing like media-business wonkery, news aggregation and browser-based application design to get a blogger all hot and bothered. Thanks to Susan Mernit, Beth Laing of Mediacenter invited us to their Emerging Technology Conference. Okay, not really. We just got invited to the casual dinner at Yahoo, where they plied us with booze and chicken and then tried to take advantage of our post-prandial trance to slip some PowerPoint slides by us. Little did they know that if there's one place bloggers are most comfortable, it's at corporate catered events. The hard work is elbowing up to the table -- but once they're done eating, the bridge has been crossed, and will probably be burned behind them.
