There were some pretty heated exchanges at the TravelBlogCamp event last week - so Los Angeles will seem the perfect place to be.

Jokes aside, I will be in LA for the PhoCusWright conference this week, so please check our PhoCusWright 2008 - News, comment, multimedia page for regular updates.
Hi Kevin
I'mm really looking forward to your updates from PhoCusWright. I've a few US blogs that I trust and refer to regularly (GridSkipper being one of them), but I'd be interested to hear if you think American-run blogs are that much more advanced - editorially, commercially, technologically - than those in the UK
Part me feels that UK writers and bloggers have been merely holding off until they can produce quality rather than just quantity.
Interesting times all round...

In the US, a niche can support a full time person working on it. In the UK - the same niche - at the same interest level (due to the smaller country population) can only support someone working part time on it.
This is true with all niches, pastimes, activities, niche sport etc..... and a general point not one about blogging in particular.
Hence, in niches, US is ahead. (and why, in the UK, many try to write either for a European audience - or a global one)
Kelly - who in the UK produces quantity not quality? Would be interested to hear.
