As part of the EV2005 Weblogging course, there are chat sessions about blogging taking place. The latest was with three guest speakers:

Dana Watson in East Lansing, Michigan,USA,
Yu Hua Chen (Stella), in Changhua City, Taiwan
Jason Reagin in Suzhou, China

I couldn't make the session, but decided to make a summary about what was discussed, with my own comments & observations.
