OneWebDay Brainstorming Meeting Tuesday, 5/9, 7 p, John Harvard’s, Harvard Square

Erica suggested that our group get involved somehow in the planning for OneWebDay, an observance honoring the Internet. She thinks people in our group would not only be interested in the celebration of the Internet, but also in ensuring something neat about the event will happen around Boston. Join her and others working on planning at John Harvard’s in Harvard Square on Tuesday, May 9, at 7 pm. Details are on their wiki. An RSVP is requested.

Our blogging friend Gregory, who had a lung transplant on April 13-14, had a bit of a setback over the weekend and is having a rough time. Please keep him, his family, and his friends in your thoughts. It seems like his recovery was going really well for a while.

Hooray Gregory!

Many of you may remember Gregory Blake from meetings in the not-that-recent past – he went home to Connecticut to wait for a new lung. Well, he just got that lung! His recovery seems to be going well. Positive thoughts, prayers, and good energy of all kinds should be directed toward Brigham & Women’s Hospital (no visitors yet!).

Whoopee!!!

Berkman Conference on the Internet and Politics Features Sessions on Blogging

ø

Votes, Bits, & Bytes, a free conference organized by the Berkman Center from Thursday, Dec. 9, through Saturday, Dec. 11, focuses on politics and the Internet. Blogging will be a major part of this conference, particularly during a number of sessions on Saturday. Many of the themes map to our blog meeting discussions, particularly those on tools and blogging as a way to cross international boundaries. Some of our blog group members are speaking, too, like Rebecca MacKinnon and David Weinberger and our founder, Dave Winer. Michael Turk and Joe Trippi will discuss the Internet and politics in light of the 2004 U.S. presidential election during the opening event Thursday night at 6 pm.

Sooz and Gregor are hosting a special dutch treat dinner at Casablanca, 40 Brattle Street, at 8:30 pm on Thursday for the conference. We are invited to join them and bring friends and family members.

And, of course, our blogging friends Wendy Koslow and Erica George and many others at the Berkman Center are working very hard on this conference.
