"And besides, live-blogging is really just another form of note-taking. If
someone isn't live-blogging my session, it means I'm saying something
terribly boring."

I have to agree.  I keep my laptop out for notes and researching the speaker
or the speaker's references during panels.  If it gets the point that my
mind wanders and I feel like checking my email, it's because I don't find
the speaker terribly interesting.

When you pay to go to a conference and learn things, a bum panel is a real
waste of time *and* money.  (I tried to avoid that feeling this year at
SXSWi by actively leaving panels that weren't what I expected or were
otherwise not up to par.)
