YKC 2007
Blogging the Presidentials, McJoan's Story
We re-posted a diary written by Jeffrey Feldman on his experience with the Leadership Forum earlier today. This diary was written by one of the moderators, Joan McCarter (aka mcjoan) at Daily Kos. It includes some of the questions that you didn't hear asked because they were sacrificed to the time clock.
Frameshop: The Forum From the Floor
Jeffrey Feldman wrote this diary and posted it on Daily Kos this afternoon. It describes some of his impressions working on the Leadership Forum. You can read it with comments here.
Update on unConventional
Just wanted to put out a quick update on unConventional. We're still trying to get settled after returning from the convention but we hope to start getting copies in the mail to folks that have paid for them this week.
If you had opted to pick yours up at the convention and didn't get around to doing that then no worries, we'll just ship it to you.
YKC Scheduled for a Daily Show Appearance
We are supposed to have a segment on the Daily Show this evening, so tune in if you can.
Thanks to YearlyKos sponsor Inworld Studios and their Second Life streaming team RagingGurrl and JayAckroyd who captured all the Grand Ballroom events and footage for The Daily Show.
YearlyKos Convention: Final Round-Up, Last Thoughts, Missing You Already
Amidst Lollapalooza and an African American Shriners and Daughters of the Sphinx ball in all their dazzling pageantry (yes, hats too), our YearlyKos Convention held its ground, maybe not with rock stars and Rolls Royced master masons, but with bloggers, big media, progressive organizations, presidential candidates and the full weight of the Netroots Nation.
Netroots Nation in 2008
The big announcement at the Saturday night keynote with Gina, Markos and the hilarious line-up of Laughing Liberally comics was the name change of the YearlyKos Convention to Netroots Nation.
Netroots Nation, say Convention organizers, gets to the heart of what this gathering is all about. The name reflects the event's inclusivity of so many progressive organizations.
Buy unConventional: Defend Us Essayists!!!
unConventional, YearlyKos: Citizens, Focus and Action, will be available for purchase right outside the main ballroom!
Last Day to SMS, Wiffiti and Twitter Me Timbers
The last time I hear the word twitter, I was five watching Bambi.
“Flower: [about two birds fluttering around] Well! What's the matter with them?
Friend Owl: Why, don't you know? They're twitterpated.
Flower, Bambi, Thumper: Twitterpated?
Saturday Schedule Highlights: Day and Night
Noooo!!! It's the last day of the Convention! But we're ending on a higher-than-all-heck note with the Presidential Leadership Forum.
Can I get a wooo-hoooo??
Don't forget your lanyards today! That would be very bad. And why not put on little bits of ritz while you're at it? No pressure--just the whole world watching...
