Yes, we are on the ball, getting the second conference organized already! The date has been set - so mark your calendars now: January 19th, 2008. You all come to Chapel Hill that day, OK?
We'll use the wiki again so help us make the event as good as possible by posting suggestions and editing the wiki.
We also need a new logo - so stir up your creative juices and send your suggestions (not to be confused with the logo contest for BlogTogether for which we offer a prize!).
To go with the conference, we'll be assembling another Science Blogging Anthology, so send your nominations here.

Why couldn't we approach a number of websites where science teachers hang out and propose some kind of essay contest for high-school students, with winning essays published in our blogs?
