Testimonial• As an attendee, I felt the conference was pretty cutting edge
in both technology and philosophy. After all, it was a conference about open and sharing. I did not have to worry about missing other sessions since I know they will be available online. This certainly eased some of the pain of having to make tough decision on which session to go to.
• As a presenter, I was glad to be podcasted so that we would be able to share with potentially more people around the globe, and this, again, is what that conference all about - removing the access barriers to information/knowledge.
