Artur – Doubtless we have made mega-progress with things technical – but somehow, flies do land in the ointment. (“Maybe I should have done that before, but I was busy preparing the session I convened in that "Unconference", with a lot of last minute problems, like my local network, dying some minutes before the event...”).
I am reminded of my good friends at Microsoft who brought together several hundred of their senior folks to redesign their data centers. Needless to say I left the electronic support to them, and they assured me that it would be “state-of-the-art. I am sure it was (SOTA) – but there was a small problem. Didn’t work. Back to paper and pencils! – but eventually I suggested that we might just try WORD templates with finger drives. Worked like a charm, as always. I am definitely in favor of charting new courses and trying new stuff, indeed the first Open Space was documented on the predecessor to the Internet in 1985 (DARPANET). And lord knows there is wonderful new stuff out there. So have fun, but don’t throw away the pencils and paper. Could be useful in emergency (smile).

I could not see it previously advertised here, nor commented afterwards, even if I saw there a lot of people that are in this list. So I am resending to the list the initial advertisement, that was posted in the events section of the OST NING (http://openspaceworld.ning.com/) and some comments to it. (Maybe I should have done that before, but I was busy preparing the session I convened in that "Unconference", with a lot of last minute problems, like my local network, dying some minutes before the event...). Any how the unconference was very interesting with a lot of sessions offered and a lot of conferencing products tested. Anyone can still see the sessions offered, many summaries of the session and even some full recorded sessions.

Radical Inclusion is once again pleased to provide the platform for this self-organized virtual unconference. In our last year’s unconference participants felt that the burning issues of the 21st century could only be solved by using new collaborative methods, changing the ways we work together, and finding novel approaches to co-operation. Thus, this year’s conference, titled “Making the Most of Collaborative Worlds – Physical, Virtual and Blended Collaboration”, focuses on understanding the changes that are required at individual, team, and organizational levels to deal with these issues. We are also announcing a new name for the conference, Radical Real-Time. It reflects our radically different approach to collaborative engagement. Thank you Christina Jordan for coming up with the name! We feel that “Real-Time Virtual Collaboration (RTVC)” taught us much during its first year and has deserved this new forward-looking name. The purpose of the Radical Real-Time unconference is to provide a global forum where we all can come together, explore topics of common interest, learn, and create sustainable actions. Our unconference structure is loosely based on the principles of Open Space Technology, which has revolutionized large group gatherings by allowing the passion and responsibility of relevant stakeholders to drive the conference agenda. Radical Real-Time participants will be able to explore topics most important to them, and convene breakout sessions using a variety of virtual tools. Besides proposing a topic of interest, session conveners may also choose the collaboration platform of their choice. If you are a newbie to the use of virtual tools, the Radical Inclusion team will be on hand to provide technical support. Radical Real-Time conference is free of charge. This was the feedback of Harrison Owen, the inventor of Open Sace Technology on our last year's event: "That was a great tour of a marvelous adventure! Cyberspace IS Open Space. And the Internet works exactly the same way as every Open Space — totally self-organizing. I think what you are doing is identifying various aspects of the Internet that make the whole experience more useful. Sort of like finding new rooms in the venue, Temple Bells, Talking Sticks, etc." Read more about the conference, propose a session, or register for the event at <http://rtvc10.ning.com> http://rtvc10.ning.com § <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/wosonos-2010-berlin> < Previous Event § <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/odws-cocreating-a-new-world> Next Event > Comment Wall Comment Parte superior do formulário Parte inferior do formulário Comment by <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/profile/KathieWallace> Kathie Wallace on June 5, 2010 at 6:24pm <http://openspaceworld.ning.com/events/radical-realtime-annual> Delete CommentRadical Real-Time Virtual UnConference was amazing <http://rtvc10.ning.com> http://rtvc10.ning.com #rrt10 Many thanks to the organizers!
