I'm at TED.
I'm working the Blogging Clinic at TED this week, helping folks new to blogging get their understand the basics and benefits of RSS, syndication and FeedBurner's role in the mix. If you're not familiar with TED, it's where you're guarnateed not to be the smartest kid in the room. Proof of that was handed to me this morning in the form of, oh, a Nobel prize winner attendee, sitting on the couch across from me in a lobby full of flat panel monitors simulcasting the conference taking place in the main hall. Dick and I marveled at the fact that Watson is probably the only person alive who can take the stage and call some of Linus Pauling's work on DNA "crap," which he did on Tuesday. That's the sort of gathering this is.
Supposedly, Matt Groening of Simpsons creation fame will be stopping by the Clinic later this afternoon. If I can somehow be part of the process that gets him blogging (he doesn't already have one? Un-possible.), well, neat. Maybe he'll even suffer a shameless photo opp with the rest of us.
