It's great to see the conference go as well as it did actually considering I was watching the twittering by blognation and it was wild. I'd wake up to about 100+ twitters about the event. I'll also commend what they're doing there. Isaac Mao has been instrumental in many things going on with blogging (at least what you get to read on this side of the world). From what I've read of the live blog efforts, it's been incredible. If there is a stream or someway to participate with users on this side of the world, perhaps next year we could set something up. In any case, thanks for the provision of the English translations along with everyone else that is writing about CnBlogcon for those of us that aren't able to read the official blog. Waiting impatiently for next year! John, thanks for stopping by and commenting.

Countless inspiring examples seen at the BlogCon this weekend. I'd just want to add that the organizers are under a lot of pressure in attempting to organize something like this, in a precarious position, and while some things went a little haywire, they were still able to ensure that all conversations, even potentially troublesome discussions, were given the time they deserved. For that I can't praise the organizers Isaac Mao, Shi Zhao, the Social Brain foundation and many more who go unnamed, enough. There was outstanding translation provided by Julie Z, and I'm confident that if there's need for simultaneous translation at next year's CnBlogCon, these guys will have no trouble in providing it. @joz: 8Asians is not banned at this particular moment
