The theme is Design Blogging is Changing Everything (yikes!) and the moderator is Alice Twemlow. Here's the pitch:

Every day, if not hour, if not minute, design blogs draw attention to an unprecedented quantity and ever-expanding diversity of design. Join us to hear what four design blog luminaries see as today's most prominent design trends, including example projects, and stories from the front lines of today's design world. This will be followed by a critical discussion of how design blogs are changing design, investigating the unintended consequences of self-publishing, and what blogging can achieve for its readers, writers, and the design community at large.

Panelists are Tina Roth Eisenberg from SwissMiss, Josh Rubin from Cool Hunting, Khoi Vinh from Subtraction and NYT, and Core77's own Allan Chochinov.
