The morning tea with the PM (#PMTea) came at just the right time for me - right before my candidacy presentation which is this Friday! Coincidence? I may just use your post as a screen grab in my slides! This whole bloggin' thing is certainly getting more attention - I'd better hurry up with my research.

For ...Hey Craig, I think you are bang on the money. For me it totally changed the pace and tone of the political discussion. For what it's worth, someone asked her right near the end of the gathering why she had done it. Her reply was along the lines of it offering an environment to talk about things and hear from people in a much less formal setting. The challenge with that is, as Clementine Ford describes it, a formal informality - how much do you discuss, how far do you go in what you ask? Someone did ask some more pointed questions and several of us were instantly of the 'whoah, not cool' reaction. The PM I might add, responded with a very non-spin pragmatic open answer. She did the same when talking to Eden (Edenland) about foreign aid. I think it was a very successful event for the PM.kim at allconsuminghttp://allconsuming.com.aunoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8750343339904865739.post-70773842587870414662012-06-18T13:52:22.923+10:002012-06-18T13:52:22.923+10:00It's been more on the local Canberra stage, bu...It's been more on the local Canberra stage, but you'll be pleased to hear that the Canberra Theatre Centre has been fostering and calling about relationships with influential bloggers for a few years now.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8750343339904865739.post-41812679287034019472012-06-18T13:35:41.624+10:002012-06-18T13:35:41.624+10:00I wonder why she only met with female bloggers?

Interesting times. <br /><br />Perhaps next on the agenda for the PM would be a similar event for male bloggers.
