From my perspective as a conference organizer, that was sweet of them. As a tech blogger, I would have said that I would be screwing with my integrity if I was paid to say things. If they paid me to say whatever I wanted about the topic however, that’d be different. Kind of like.. honest opinion, but direct your attention this way.

I think that would be the way to go. You’d have to have credible bloggers though, but it would actually let the integrity point stand, and still allow them to do their business. But whatever. I’m going on a tangent.

Disclosure = key.
