Discussion
Jason, I think the week of
Jason,
I think the week of scheduling you provide for the events in and around Boston is great.
I just have a quick question regarding gutenblog.net, since there is no "why use gutenblog?" or "features" preview page, what incentive does it give to wordpress or posterous users who can auto-publish to multiple blogs? Just wondering because I would enjoy using it if it is superior.
Thanks,

Ryan,
Glad you find the listing useful. I'm not sure if we've met, but I hope to see you out there at some of those events.
Best,
Jason
