Amazing Blog Reporting from WSIS Prepcon in Tunisia
Andy Carvin's Waste of Bandwidth is hardly a waste. What a hurculean blogging reportage. WOW! Complete with video clips. I'm now wondering who else was blogging and what the aggregate would look like - the different perspectives that are inevitable at such meetings. Blogging and the civil society in action!

Hi Nancy,
Thanks for plugging my blog on your blog! Actually, there were at least four of us posting updates from the WSIS Prepcom, though I was the only one I know of using traditional blogging software. Ralf Bendrath was reporting each day to the WSIS site he runs for the Heinrich Boll Foundation; Rik Panganiban was posting daily summaries to listservs and to the CONGO website; and Bertrand de la Chapelle did the same for WSIS-Online. Hopefully between the four of us, we managed to triangulate (quadrangulate?) the prepcom from our various perspectives and skill sets. Next time I hope really pro bloggers like the journalists at DailySummit.net will be able to participate, as they did in the Geneva phase of WSIS.
