After Netroots Nation 2009: photos of Day 1 at the NN09 Conference in Pittsburgh: Bill Clinton welcome keynote

Ok. I am not being quiet, but I am just working on videos, information and comments I have about the Netroots Nation 2009 [Twitter #NN09] conference this past week in Pittsburgh.

The event: great, well organized, racially segregated sometimes, very “progressive” but not so inclusive, I was there in a scholarship –thank you- and I learned a whole lot about social media, internet activism and ways the Democratic party is supporting bloggers and activists to change politics in the U.S. from their computers. From today, I will post photos, videos, comments.

Day 1

Thursday August 13

Here is the first bunch of pictures I took the first day of NN09. I will be right back with comments.

Day 1 Bill Clinton in the house

These are images of the long, interesting, repeatitive and egocentric speech that former president Bill Clinton gave at NN09. The highlight would when gay activist Lane Hudson interrrupted Clinton on LGBT rights. Read here what Hudson wrote about it.
