Like I was saying, one of the cool things about Scribble Live is the ability to collaborate on that event with others.  With that said, I have created a live blog to use during the conference and would love for others to join me in making it a great capture from many angles of the events.

If anyone out there would like to add to the live blog, simply go here and add your observations:

Also, you can email text and pictures to the live blog as well.  Simply email them to this address and they will also show up in the live blog feed.

I think it will be great if some of you can collaborate so we can really create a rich and varied “living” document that others can enjoy and learn from the what is being presented that were not able to make it.

Look forward to seeing many of your updates !

I have been using it at the last couple events I have been to and plan on using it pretty extensively at the Graphing Social Patterns Conference and BlogPotomac this week in DC.  As it stands right now, they offer a pretty cool featureset and are looking to add more.

What I think is very cool is the ability to share the live blog you are working on with others to have them collaborate with you.  They may be in different panels or getting a different spin on the event and can add in their thoughts and observations into the same stream.  Not only that, but your live blog you create comes with an email address that anyone can send pics or videos to and have those inserted right into the live blog stream as well.  It is very very cool.

I have been keeping up with the Scribble Live blog and they are about to release the ability to embed the live blog into your own pages on your website or blog.  This keeps traffic on your site which is always a nice touch.  There looks to be a wordpress plugin to even incporporate this into your wordpress blog.

If anyone out there is interested in collaborating at GSP or BlogPotomac with me on the live blogging, please drop me a line and let me know !
