Technology

When:	October 5, 9AM
Where:	Pound 200
Discussion leader:	Susan Mernit
Who attends:	Bloggers of all experience levels. Vendors and developers, but users drive the agenda, not techies.
Description:	Most conferences about technology put the vendors on stage and the users in the audience. At BloggerCon, we're trying a new idea, get a group of informed, independent and neutral users together, and talk about where we want the industry to go. Out of work done before this session should come a set of issues that users want to see addressed. Things that vendors talk about but rarely deliver on. Performance, reliability, interop, no lock-in, no talking over users' heads or down to users about things they wouldn't understand. A basic statement of user's rights, that includes understanding how the software works, and what systems it works with (and not).
