Well, this is a weblog, so we have to write about, but this is also a weblog about cyberethnologica and a scientific look at internet culture, and so we have to report it anyway: Two days ago there was a conference in California called Supernova. Quite important people were speaking about distributed computing and dezentralized intelligence. Google-Founder Sergey Brin was talking, and also "visionary" Howard Rheingold and one of the first bloggers, Dave Winer. Cory Doctorov from Wired and founder of the collaborative weblog BoingBoing.net was also there. And, as you can read here, in nearly every panel they were talking about weblogs. This is an interesting development.

Another conference, only dedicated to weblogs, will be held in Vienna next year. A Call for Papers just has been published. But at the moment it looks like they are focussed a little bit on the question how weblogs could be used in business.
