Ok, you have all noticed that conferences are not as stuffy as they used to be. So why not use the Sakai conference to geek out and make valuable connections with community folks who have similar interests to yours! Below is a list of technologies and tips to make your participation in the conference more enjoyable and efficient. And hey, this is a wiki, so add yours!

Info

This page is under development, but please step in if you want to share something!

In addition to the official calendar from Concentra, all the schedule data is available in a set of Google Calendars (one for each track). You can see all the calendars together at http://bit.ly/sakai11gcal. You can subscribe in Google Docs (see screenshot below):

The Sakai North American Conference 2011 will take place on the 14th, 15th and 16th of June, at the Westin Bonaventure*, Los Angeles. Pre-conference sessions will be held on June 13th.

The hashtag for the conference is #sakai11, so enable a search on your smartphone app, engage in the conversation, and start following fellow attendees! And as in years past, there is a frequently updated analysis of the #sakai11 Twitter activity.

Be sure to install a Twitter client on your computer to really enjoy using it! My favorite one is Twhirl, but a lot of people enjoy TweetDeck as well.

Contact Exchange

Bump

Instead of exchanging (or losing) business cards, why not bump each other? Bump is a technology that lets iPhone and Android users alike knock they phones against one another to exchange the contact information of your choice. It's also a great way to share URLs of your current projects to let others explore on their own later. You also can elect to share your profile picture, so it's easier to remember who you have met.

Videos

Citizen journalist journalists will collect video snippets and share them online throughout the conference. More to come.
