I’m pretty sure that’s what he said. But it was real-time, so I could have misheard. I’ll check and update later.

As for that same panel, the speakers did what they came to do. I’m on a different knowledge level than most of the other bloggers in the room, so for me, the information was a bit basic, but for everyone else- they got exactly what they came for and then some. If I thought the panel was shit, I would have blogged that it was shit. I’ve never had a problem doing that before. This trip was in no way sponsored. I don’t owe anyone “gentle” coverage. I don’t play that way.

It wasn’t all rainbows:

if I wanted to hear how awesome the blogworld speakers were when they “brought it” while simultaneously “disappoint”ing you by delivering only the “very basic of basics”, I guess I could read this oh-so-gentle version of Lisa liveblogging.

Seriously. It’s like you’re afraid to be critical of your new friends, cause maybe they won’t like, like you as much? Welcome to BlogWorld? Were you like, sponsored or something?

C’mon Lisa you can be honest… right?

Also I know I wasn’t at that session, so I may not have learned the new blogger revenue math, but you might check your equation above. Those who need a formula to calculate “revenue per thousand page views” will also probably misread your mis-placed denominator. It works better as 1000 x Total Revenue/ Page Views . I’m just sayin. Do the math wrong, and blogging might not pay too well.
