Supernova and meeting blog heroes

June 18th, 2008

As you might have read on my Twitter page I’m currently in San Francisco to attend the Supernova 2008 conference with Patrick and Arjen. After my visit to the Web 2.0 Expo I didn’t expect to be here so soon again - yet as you can imagine: I don’t really mind!

Supernova is a conference that really digs deep in the theories behind the network age. That attracts an interesting crowd and I got to meet some people who I only used to know from their excellent blog posts. Like Hugh MacLeod from Gapingvoid, a blogger, cartoonist and thinker I really admire. I had an interesting conversation about creativity with him, together with Scott Beal from Laughingsquid and Lori Dorn.

Scott runs a really unconventional blog about the web, arts, philosophy and plain weird technology. The variety is fascinating. Scott revealed his secret last night when he told me he just blogs about “whatever he finds interesting”. I’ll keep that in mind when I’m blogging for this blog.
