In October I participated on a panel at Wordfest in Calgary. The discussion was called something odd like “The Blogger Blogs” and the panelists were scheduled to talk about blogging.

As J. A. McDougall points out in her post on The Canadian Writers Collective blog, “titling a session with the word blog is akin to inviting people to a meeting about computers.”

Thankfully we, the panelists, managed to keep up the witty conversation about our favourite blogs, why we blog, how we deal with spam and what our ideologies are when it comes to community and online tools.

J. A. does an excellent job of quoting each of the panelists and summarizing what we talked about.

Here’s the full post for those interested.

Check out the links to the panelists’ favourite blogs, there are some good ones.

And, of course, a huge thank you to J. A. for attending the blogging discussion at Wordfest. I appreciated all the insightful questions and comments. Many, many thanks.
