Hey, check this out. A bunch of liberal bloggers are having a big conference out in Detroit, and you can watch the whole thing with live streaming. A full schedule of speakers is below.
Just in case I am not the only one that did not know all of the 2014 Netroots Nation conference presentations can be watched on live streaming from Upstream, here are the links I just "discovered" by accident poking around another site.
"Why wasn't I informed of this?"
Sheesh.

For those that would like to learn more Huffington Post says they will be covering the whole thing all week at Netroots Nation 2014: Live Video Of Keynote Speeches, Panels, Interviews (Snark Alert!)
Vice President Joe Biden will give the keynote address at the event on Thursday. Other speakers at the event include Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.).

Perhaps there is some reason we do no see any of this here? If so, I'll take this down. But, just in case there are others, like me unaware you could be watching this, enjoy!
Cheers.
