The next big blog event in the UK is Gone to the Blogs organised by Spiked online. The main feature is likely to be the leftist commentator on social issues and Ireland Brendan O’Neill and the libertarian mover and shaker of Samizdata Perry de Havilland. It will also include James Crabtree, the bright, young, blogging intellectual behind Voxpolitics (he’s currently having a bit of a scrap with Demos over networks vs hierarchies). The political input is counterbalanced by the notsoyoung BBC tech blogger Bill Thompson.
