Bloggers and Digital Media Specialists

Dragonfire is putting on a panel discussion this weekend over at the Rittenhouse Barnes & Noble. It's going to be a discussion about "how bloggers and digital media specialists are helping to shape journalism" which sounds like it'll generate some interesting discussion.
