Blogging the Semantic Technology Conference

I noticed a big difference in the coverage in the blogosphere of this years conference versus last years.  That leads of course to the question: is it the conference or growth in blogging?  I don’t have any stats, but my sense was that blogging was very much in full swing last year, and it’s rapid growth may be behind it. 

That said I thought I’d sum up what I did see.

This is probably just the tip of the iceberg, but compared to last year, seemed there was only a mention or two. Something’s happening.
