On August 24-26 the second Rising Tide Conference will bring together bloggers from across the city to discuss the realities of recovery in the city and how the blogosphere can better develop a dialogue on these issues.

As their website suggests:
“We will come together to dispel myths, promote facts, share personal testimonies, highlight progress and regress, discuss recovery ideas, and promote sound policies at all levels. We aim to be a “real life” demonstration of internet activism as the nation prepares to mark the two year anniversary of a massive natural disaster followed by governmental failures on a similar scale.”
