And his wildly successful Web 2.0 conference in San Francisco next month is perhaps the industry's hottest. (Even Robert Scoble can't get a ticket!)John's next big move is the creation of an advertising "exchange" between quality bloggers like BoingBoing and Digg and national brand advertisers including General Motors and Microsoft. The new company is called Federated Media and they have quietly signed nearly 100 blogs. Here's an interesting piece by Matthew Creamer in Advertising Age.We caught up with Federated's VP Chas Edwards in New York last week.
