Seven on Seven is tomorrow! It's sold out, but never fear: Giampaolo Bianconi will be hosting a liveblog of the event, so you can follow along here as it happens. As our stellar interim editor for the site over the past few months, Bianconi also commissioned the texts we've published over the past couple of weeks, profiling several Seven on Seven participants: Fatima Al Qadiri, Jeremy Bailey, Cameron Martin, Jill Magid and Harper Reed.
Meanwhile, our Twitter hashtag #7on7htc is already heating up. Alyssa Wright of OpenGeo set high expectations for our keynote speaker, noted contrarian Evgeny Morozov:
