While there are certainly advantages to meat-space conferences, this online format has the wonderful advantage of accessibility. It is, IMHO, a very good format for providing discussions without limit to a small geographic area.

Again, kudos to everyone involved.

Thank you! We’ll have to do that again soon.

Thanks so much, Gina! (Hehehe getting more people to follow FtBlogs was our sekkrit plan ALL ALONG.)

I’ve really liked your recent posts, too!

I felt pretty inspired after watching them, which is what I come to expect from cons! Also, I found a bunch of bloggers I’d like to follow, including you!

Yes, I’m late to the party. Apparently everyone else in the Polyskeptic Compound already knew how excellent this blog was, so I’m playing catch up! I look forward to reading more!

The “What’s the Harm?” panel was a big and scary thing to do, but you kept us on topic and the conversations (before, during and especially after the panel) were awesome!

Thanks! We shall drink again after FtBCon 2: THE WAR ON MEN. Or Christmas. Whichever works.
