Conference as community

I’m amazed and delighted at how social and connected an online conference like iMoot is. Here I sit at my desk, working on my computer. I’m chatting with people & joking with people, trading stories and photos and such. I’ve been praised and argued with, validated and questioned. I’ve been quoted & I’ve quoted others.

Yes, this is all Web2.0 and stuff but it just is great that here’s this online group of people – none of whom have I actually met – and we are really connecting. What fun. What a joy.
