At the end of next week I'm going to Greensboro, NC to participate in the ConvergeSouth conference.

I have a great affection for the southern US, having spent much of this year in the south, but after my Nashville experience, I wanted to steer clear of redstate-bluestate politics, and asked to lead a discussion on blogging tools and technology from a user's perspective. This is always a fruitful discussion, because users have great ideas about what's needed for better writing tools and ways to aggregate blog content in interesting ways.

As always, I'd like to start the discussion as soon as possible and include as many as possible.

So if you have any thoughts on the next generation of user-oriented blogging tools, please let's start talking about it now.
