Fellow bloggers, if you're bored - stop watching from the 7th floor. You're not at the DNC to blog all the boring speeches, (though someone may want to keep an ear out for anything interesting said), go into the crowd like the press and meet the delegates from your states - chat with delegates who aren't getting the media attention, or go outside and chat with locals, protesters and other folks about Boston. If you can celebrity-spot before a journalist can & get a candid story - all the more power to you. But blogging the DNC isn't just about posting faster than the press - it's about getting and publishing the stories the press will never find.
Though kudos to the BBC for interviewing Robert Reich - my favorite to run against Mitt Romney for governor a few years back. They're live down in the BBC booth- bloggers, stalk!
