Last week while I was at BlogOn2005 in NYC, I had the great privilege to sit around a table with three of the world’s most admired and read bloggers:
> Mena Trott, president and co-founder of Six Apart, the company behind Typepad and Moveable Type.
> Jackie Huba, who, with her partner Ben McConnell, wrote a terrific book “Creating Customer Evangelists” and runs the Church Of The Customer blog.
> Steve Rubel, Vice President, Client Services at CooperKatz and Company, a mid-size PR firm in midtown New York City, and the guy behind the well-read Micro Persuasion weblog.
We started the chat by following on from the panel that Steve moderated where he asked the question “what does ‘markets are conversations’ really mean?” and then got into a general discussion about the current state of blogging.
Listen closely for the moment when Steve made us all go misty eyed. It was a beautiful moment and not one that I want to trivialize at all, because it’s actually quite a powerful idea.
Enjoy.

Rod Adams is based in Maryland in the United States. He founded Adams Atomic Engines in 1993 to design and market nuclear powered gas turbines.
I chatted with him recently about the safety of atomic energy vs fossil fuels. Some of the stuff he has to say might challenge your current perceptions.
This show was recorded using Skylook, the awesome cool plug-in for Microsoft Outlook, based in Melbourne Australia.
Oh and if you hadn’t noticed… it was sponsored by our very good friends at MOTOROLA.

Dave Slusher talks to me about his role in the VERY early days of podcasting and explains why his site is called EVIL GENIUS CHRONICLES.
We chat quite a lot about the directions, good, bad and ugly, that citizen media is going in. He also let’s me know what he thinks about TPN!
If you want to hear Dave’s thoughts on our chat POST the discussion, check out his podcast on it here.

Suw Charman is the Producer of BlogOn2005 which is happening at the Copa-Copacabana hotel in NEW YORK CITY on October 17 and 18, and she took some time our of her very busy schedule to chat with me about the agenda for the event. This is not going to be your usual “blogger love-in”, where A-list bloggers give each other the secret handshake and the rest of the crowd whimper and kowtow.
I guess now that Jason and Dave are mega-MEGA rich, we will have to kowtow to their body doubles in future?
Anyway… As I was saying, BlogOn isn’t one of THOSE events. This is an event for regular business people who want to understand what the hell they should be doing about this social media phemonenon that they keep hearing about.
BlogOn features some amazing speakers, including David Weinberger, Seth Godin, Steve Rubel, and some guy who likes to wear Elvis sunnies.
So, if you’re ready to find how social media is going to affect your business, reserve your place now.
