[Scienceblogging.orgbelow  is quite a nice portal. Is there a comparable portal 
for AI/AGI/robotics blogs/sites? There ought to be]

I just heard about a fairly well attended conference called Science Online. 
They run it as an unconference and based on the posts, videos and tweets, it 
looked like an interesting conference. Thought many of you might be interested 
in some of the info here!

ScienceOnline2011 is the fifth annual international meeting on Science and the 
Web. On January 13-16th, 2011 the Research Triangle area of North Carolina will 
once again host scientists, students, educators, physicians, journalists, 
librarians, bloggers, programmers and others interested in the way the World 
Wide Web is changing the way science is communicated, taught and done.

2010 has been an exciting year in science, in the developments of the Web, and 
in the media (including science journalism). The past year’sevents, coupled 
with the growing reputation of our conference around the world, prompted us to 
make the conference bigger than last year: we expect as many as 500 
participants to convene over the three full days of exciting discussions, 
conversations and events.

One of the most interesting developments in the second half of 2010 is the 
explosive growth of the science blogosphere, especially formation of new 
blogging networks (one of which will be developed by one of us). To help you 
navigate the new science blogging ecosystem, we started developing a website 
that aggregates it all in one place: Scienceblogging.org.

As in all the previous years, the meeting will be held in an ‘Unconference’ 
style – the Program is built beforehand with the help of participants on the 
wiki, and the sessions are designed to foster conversations and discussions 
rather than a more traditional lecture approach.
You can get prepared ahead of time and help us make the conference great by 
looking around the site, volunteering to help, or volunteering to lead 
sessions. You can also follow us on Twitter – either the hashtag #scio11 or our 
official account @scio11 – check us out on Lanyrd,or join the discussion in our 
official FriendFeed room. You can help us get a feel for the number of people 
intending to attend by indicating your interest on our Facebook event page.
