RNC2008: The Blogger Setup

Ed Morrissey of HotAir writes about today’s first day, and adds:

It turns out that they don’t really have facilities for all of the bloggers invited, at least not in the hall. Most bloggers got assigned to the seats in the spectator area, which do not have power for the laptops. They can have unlimited access to the Media Filing Center, which most of us didn’t quite realize, but only a few bloggers have actual blogging facilities in the hall. Expect lots of blowback as bloggers realize this; some of this will definitely find its way into the blogosphere. Keep an eye out for it.

Absolutely true.. I’m “seated” in Section 222, which has a pretty good view of the corner of the back of the stage…. if I were even seated there.

There’s no where to plug in.

I ended up scouting around and finding a table & chairs, and more importantly some power… but even that isn’t great. There’s no view!

I’m not sure where the Media Filing Center is, and I only learned about “bloggers row” this afternoon.

Hmmm.
