FireFix 2.0 keeps crashing on me. Anyone else having problems?

Am going to give NaNoWriMo a go this year. I’ve some time off in November, which will give me a chance to catch up if I fall behind. Last year, Palimpsest attempted a joint version, which didn’t quite go to plan. Maybe doing it on my own will actually make it easier…

Steve Rubel and John Naughton both link to a story from Greg Verdino about the Nielsen BuzzMetric conference, which has banned delegates from blogging about the event. There’s more here from David Armano.

The subject covered by the conference? Consumer generated media. Unbelievable.

As many have said, the word-of-blog marketing that having running commentaries on conferences and other events is a real bonus for organisers, and many events have grown in popularity as a result. Banning bloggers from anything is a bad thing, especially when they can so clearly have a beneficial effect.

Strange times at the moment. Yesterday I went to the doctors to try and get my sore throat sorted out – I’ve had it for about a month now. When I left, I had diabetes.

Everyone has been cool so far, plenty of good advice and well wishes. Heck, it’s not like I’m even properly ill – just that I’m not going to be able t enjoy the booze like I used to (on occasion…) and that sweet tooth of mine is going to have to come under control.
