BBC News gives their report on MilBlog Conference

It focuses on the Milblogging Family Style:

Carla Lois started an online diary - a weblog - just before the army sent her son Noah to Iraq in January 2005.

Carla Lois: Having a son at war is like a constant asthma attack
Eight months later, it paid off in a way she must always have prayed it would not, when she posted a terse item headlined: "My Son Has Been Injured."

Noah had a serious spinal injury, she told her readers, and she asked them to pray for him.

Within hours, 200 emails had flooded in offering prayers, comfort, support - and news.

And highlights the discusion Blogging from Theater:

Over the course of a day of discussions taking place both in person and online - and, naturally, among a panel of official conference bloggers - participants wrestled with questions about how to blog without violating military security, how much leeway the military should give to bloggers, and how milbloggers could help influence - or force - the mainstream media to cover the war in Iraq better.

Retired Col Austin Bay delivered a keynote address in which he argued that milblogging was already having a impact.

"Milbloggers have made a difference - at least to their families and to the military community.

"This conference is about the military community, the families that comprise it and the people it serves."

Update: Greyhawk here. I realize the conference was too big to cover in a brief news story, but couldn't they have found some place to squeeze in a mention of the conference organizer?
