Blogging the Yearly Kos Convention

CHICAGO--Your blogstress never meant to neglect her devotees; truly she did not, mes amis. It's just that, this time of year, there are so many conferences and so little time.

Consequently, your cybertrix finds herself blogging instead for Real Women, Real Voices, the blog of the National Women's Editorial Forum, which has sent your Webwench to observe the haps at the Yearly Kos convention, the confab that bears the name of the giant, multi-voice blog known as Daily Kos.
