...but who can help me identify the arcane Techno-mage, Transterrestrialist, Anglosphericaloid and, er, Pundit, who make up this sinister cabal before whom the world trembles?

What is the blogosphere equivalent of "he has a great face for radio"?

There's nothing sexier than a man sporting a legal conference badge...

Comparing the front-page photos here and at Instapundit, I can't help noticing a certain difference. Is this the changing of the guard, cheesecake-wise?

Actually, it was a space conference...

Yeah yeah... yak yak yak... so which of you guys can actually put names on all four of these scary guys???

Well, I can, but that would be cheating. I suspect the one on the left will be the toughest.

The magical horse. It lives in a garage. Where did it put my wheelbarrow?

Argh! My eyes, my eyes! Bearded Bennett! Avaunt, avaunt!!!

Hey Illegitimacy, I'll have some of whatever you are smoking, laddie!

Well I know that the man in the scary blue shirt is the infamous Glenn Reynolds of Instapundit fame, and I deduce that the bloke with the beard is James Bennett of Anglosphere fame, and the guy on his other side must be Rand Simberg of Transterrestial Musings (a much favoured blog of mine I might add, so it is nice to see what his ugly mug looks like)... but I have no idea who the forth chappie might be! Techno-mage? Interesting.

Come on name these blokes (besides Glenn Reynolds, Mr. Blue Shirt). Enquiring minds want to know.

And these are the faces behind the the weblog phenomenon? It looks like a libertarian conference form 10 years ago.
