Convention season is quickly approaching. We're even getting in high gear already for Vegas Con, but there is one convention we would love to visit.  Shore Leave 32 is set for July 9-11, 2010 and is known to be one of the biggest fan run conventions on the giant blue marble.  This year's guest list is already starting to shape up.  Our buddy Miles McLoughlin from the SciFi Diner Podcast reminded us about the update.  Thanks Miles!

William "The Shat" Shatner is being honored at the Banff World Television Festival with their lifetime achievement award.  We assume the award is meant to honor his ability to create an adhoc cannon and mortally wound a gorn with it.  The Banff World Television Festival is the world's premiere television content creation event and annual forum for business and creative opportunities for those in television and new media.

Our good buddy Jerad "Super_Spock" Formby dropped another fantastic edition of his Golden Globe (we read the somewhere...) nominated Star Trek blog "Hey, Star Trek!".  This time, Jerad gives us a report of the good times had by all and a few missteps on Star Trek Online.

Captain of a starship. Is it your first, best destiny?

Star Trek: Online thinks it is and now that we’ve played through Beta and the first month of it going live, we thought important to communicate our true and real impressions.
