Here's an interesting get together in Paris later this month that will feature a lot of blog enthusiasts around the word: Les Blogs.  The conference will discuss what is happening in the blog and social software world, and provide some future perspectives on the subject.  Cognoscenti such as Loïc Le Meur, Caterina Fake, Ross Mayfield, Stowe Boyd, and Joi Ito, among others.  Sounds like a really cool event (saw even a posting about this on Robert Scoble's blog, and I echo his sentiment and regret my not being able to attend the conference, but there will be a lot of people blogging about it).
Note: Interesting to see Nokia as one of the sponsors.  There is definitely a connection there: moblogging (short for mobile blogging, or the art of blogging from a mobile device such as a cell phone or a PDA).  Rodrigo Sepulveda Schulz (another one of my favorite Euro VC bloggers) happens to have one such moblog, where he posts stuff right from his Nokia 7710 handset.   more »
