I was one of those that could not attend and joined many of you (using IM as my preferred delivery mechanism) in reading the commentary streaming in via my IM client. We decided to do the same for TechCrunch40 for those of you that can’t make it. The TC40 site lists publications but doesn’t provide journalist details that are covering the event Some blogs such as CN, bub.blicio.us, & WatchMojo have made their plans to attend known and others are joining this conversation. So this time we’re doing 2 things to get you started: 1. To monitor all posts tagged as “TechCrunch40″, use this link. Unless you add filters you get all posts that were tagged as TechCrunch40. Once you add the ZapTask, you can always choose to filter these for only topics or companies that are demoing, that you care about. 2. To monitor only those posts that are gathering steam across the blogosphere, use this link to monitor Techmeme. The ZapTask is already set up to filter posts that have TechCrunch40 in the headline. Of course you can always add only your favorite blogs if you like to monitor just the publications or journalists that you prefer. If you cant attend or missed getting in before tickets sold out, this is one way to get almost real time commentary. Set up the ZapTask and sit back and watch the updates show up in your favorite IM client, or Email/SMS.  Cheers, Sameer   e=”Arial”>Cheers, Sameer    [...] [...] We put together a ZapTask for the Web 2.0 conference last year and a lot of you who could not attend used ZapTXT to monitor bloggers and others in the press who were covering the event on the ground.
