BloggerCon is a user-focused conference for the blogger community. BloggerCon I and II, organized by Dave Winer, were held in Cambridge, Mass.

The most recent conference, BloggerCon III, was held at Stanford Law School on November 6, 2004. Popular sessions included "Podcasting" with Adam Curry, "Overload" with Robert Scoble, and "Making Money" with Doc Searls.

At BloggerCon I, the first day cost $500.- to attend, followed by a free day. For BloggerCon II and III, there was no registration cost -- voluntary contributions only. BloggerCon is also unusual in its concept of having audience participation sessions, loosely moderated by a discussion leader, rather than formal panels or keynotes.

The event was broadcast with help from www.itconversations.com and many attendees also participated in an IRC channel.

BloggerCon helped inspire the July 30, 2005 BlogHer conference.
