This announcement came in as akismet trapped spam, but it seem authentic, so I checked it out. The documentary is apparently the real thing, and there’s a real web site at the address below. Not my cup of tea, but I thought I’d pass is on. –Hugh
Dear Education Blogger,

An opening reception is scheduled on the evening of Wednesday, May 14th. Cocktails and hors d’oeuvres will be served before the screening of a new documentary film on education, Two Million Minutes. A Q&A session with the filmmakers is set to follow.
Then join us for an all-day conference on May 15th. Nowhere else will you have an opportunity to meet and network with fellow education bloggers, participate in panels, attend workshops, and help tackle some tough questions on the state of education in America.
Space is limited, so be sure to RSVP today!

I’m confused: are you advertising a letter from the ‘08 Blogger Summit that happened on May 14th already? Because, to be honest, I heard it was crap from some of the bloggers who actually attended. Plus, I heard Newt Gingrich was the main speaker. I’m good.
Not advertising, just passing on a curiosity. Thanks for the observations. I’m good too.

The view is worth the spam here.
If only all “summits” would be that grand!
