Actually, I thought Le Web 3 was almost all past the blog world or 2005 and racing to the next wave (hey, Netvibes was a major sponsor and poster-child).
Ok, so it’s coming on to over a week – I’m just catching up with my writing. But, here is my vote in favour of all Loïc and gang did. Yeah, like I told folks there in Paris, there were some kinks, but I got everything, and more, I wanted out of the event, plus some unexpected visitors.
I so subscribe to the idea that we need to mix with folks outside our area. And, yes, TED and Davos are indeed good models to emulate, even if just a bit. We all need to make sure we are learning from folks outside our comfort zone.
So, Loïc, if you ever un-bury yourself from the conversation still going on and read this, know that I’m looking forward to the next time you pull together* a gathering of thinkers, movers, and shakers.

For opening the program beyond bloggers, however, I have no regrets.
You, tell’em, Loïc.
*Did you know Les Blogs started off really as just Loïc wanting to bring together a few of his friends for a chat? Yup. It’s come a long way since.
Thanks for your good words Charlie !
