Benjamin Kaback of Second Avenue Sagas , a blog dedicated to blogging the subway from A to J/M/Z has posted his response to the Brooklyn Blogfest. He wrote to tell me about it and had this to say. Go to his blog (link above) for his more critical outlook.

I had a chance to write up my thoughts on the Blogfest on my personal
site. I took a more critical approach to the event, but I did want to
stress to you that I thought it was an excellent gathering. I think
there’s a lot of room for growth, and I know you mentioned in one of
your posts that you’re not sure if it will continue next year. I do
hope it continues next year and for years to come. The Brooklyn
Bloggers are a long way away from milking dry all of their experiences.
