One of the great things about the Charlottesville area is the opportunity to connect with others in a variety of interesting and unique ways.

Last year the inaugural blogging summit was held in Charlottesville – an unprecedented and unparalleled meeting of many of Virginia’s bloggers. Blogging has grown nation- and state-wide in the past year; the Charlottesville blogging arena has grown significantly, if not exponentially and has become a great source of opinions and information on what “is” Charlottesville. This year brings another summit – this time at the Darden School at UVa.

Politics tend to populate much of the blogging world, and for good reason – politics elicit opinions and politics impact everybody in one way or another. Norm at OMT has a succinct summary of the evolution of this year’s summit. The lineup of speakers is truly impressive. Kudos to the organizers.

Yet another thing to look forward to this summer.
