Kevin and I are not providing much in the way of live coverage of this year’s Worldcon. Obviously I’m not there, but as I noted back in June I think the need for ConReporter.com has largely gone away. There will be a lot of fans tweeting from the convention. Look for the hashtags #renosf #worldcon and #hugos. In addition the convention has produced a mobile app to help you follow the event. Instructions as to how to get it for your iOS or Android device are available here. Alternatively you can see it from an ordinary PC at this address (but only if you are using Chrome or Safari, not Firefox or IE).

This is exactly the sort of thing I hoped conventions would start doing when I started ConReporter.com, so to a certain extent I can say, “my work here is done.” And well done Reno for raising the bar.
