19:45 - Break time. I'm trying to cull comments and emails from pro-Israel bloggers who are watching at home, but it will require permission because I don't think most of those people would want most of their comments posted publicly.

19:40 - I suppose I should do my liveblogging duty and pass on Carl's good point about using listservs. Also Treppenwitz's joke about how he saves time by not editing posts. An obligatory joke, but still.

19:32 - Q&A begins. Excruciatingly. You know how at public panels of serious people you usually get non-serious people who give lectures in the context of "asking questions." Yes.

19:30 - Carl makes first demonstrably true and statistically valid point about generating traffic: get links from A-list blogs. Hey - ya think anyone will point out that this is kind of in tension with all of the peons about democratization?

19:26 - Carl starts off by being snarky about bloggers who supported the disengagement from Gaza. Apparently they thought either that (a) there would be peace afterwards and/or (b) that there would be no more territorial demands. Pretty sure I disagree about that. He follows up by talking about how neat the Red Sox are. Very sure that I disagree about that.

19:25 - After showing enormous patience, Carl In Jerusalem gets his turn. Gives props to LGF.
