Many of the BlogHer-organized panels were on topics of interest to the BlogHer community not strictly related to gender, for example an excellent panel on what happens when you mix personal blogging and professional life.

The famous tech blog, Engadget, is under fire tonight for allegedly plagiarizing stories.

The story is surfacing over at Digg which could mean legitimacy or a wildfire case of mistaken understanding.
