Not a "blogging" PDC?
Shawn Morrissey apparently isn't very impressed with the quality of blogging from this year's PDC.
Guess Shawn missed the four detailed session posts that I blogged, as well as some tips from my pre-con co-presenter, Jeff Prosise. I didn't get as much info out as I would've liked, but what I did get out, I think was as representative of the sessions that I attended as possible, given the limitations of the medium. And I think that overall, the quality of information from other blogs was as high or higher. Sure, there were some "I met Don Box" posts, or posts about the fires, but given that previous PDCs had nothing like the kind of immediately available information coming out of them, I don't think there's much to complain about. I'm all for high expectations, but it seems to me that Shawn's are unrealistically high.
Shawn does make a really good suggestion, though, which is a comments feed on the PDC Sessions page. I hope that the conference organizers take him up on that, as I think that would have a lot of value, both to those who can't make it, as well as to the speakers, not to mention the attendees who can't make it to all the sessions they'd like to see.
