The Triangle bloggers conference went pretty well. Sat a chair over from Dave Winer, with whom I had a mild disagreement over the importance of attracting traffic. He seemed to think the whole practice was slightly vulgar, and mostly done for the wrong reasons. That's easy to say when you're already attracting scads of traffic, I pointed out. We eventually ended it by agreeing we're both whores.
