If you've been reading my posts, you know that I've been talking quite a bit about how we don't seem to have applied anything we know about Learning Design to ourselves. See:
Personal Learning for Learning Professionals - Using Web 2.0 Tools to Make Reading & Research More Effective
Do Learning Professionals Make the Worst Learners?
Well, it looks like David Warlick has some good suggestions for what conference organizers should provide:
Conference 2.0 - Ten Tips for Extending your Education Conference
I wonder if we will see better up-front and follow-on activity because of some of these suggestions? To me, that's the key to really making a conference be useful.

Tony, I'd really like to read your ten tips here, but the link is defunct: Conference 2.0 - Ten Tips for Extending your Education Conference. Would you advise me on ravn.lld@dpu.dk when it's up and running? I'm doing research and development on alternative conference formats; facilitation and simple learning techniques can do much to improve learning and "human co-flourishing", as we call it, at conferences. Here are one or two of my papers about it: www.dpu.dk/om/ibr.
The link just worked for me. Let me know if you have further issues.
