On Saturday, one of the questions we'll consider is if the NY Times should have a weblog.

Let's say you got the job -- you're blogger in chief for the NY Times. What's the first post? How would you work with the reporters? How much writing would you do? How much editing? How much independence would you have? At what point would it no longer be a weblog? Is it enough for it to follow the form, or is there more to it? What would it look like in Year Two? Year Three?

We'll have several experts on the subject, including Len Apcar, editor in chief of New York Times on the Web, to discuss this interesting subject. Who knows, maybe the future BIC of the NYT will be in the room on Saturday.

If you're travelling to get to BloggerCon please, if you have the time, post a comment or Trackback to this post, so we can karmically (is that a word?) wish you a safe trip. We're all totally looking forward to seeing your smiling face on Saturday or Sunday or both days. Sing a song while you're traveling. When you stop, tell someone about your blog. It's a little chilly at the other end of your trip. We'll save a hot cup of coffee for you.
