Last week a team of volunteer live-bloggers, vloggers, and a "n2y3con" tag monitor created and collected blog posts and video from the NetSquared Conference (N2Y3). Below are links to the sessions the livebloggers posted on the NetSquared Blog, and to the videos the vloggers posted on NetSquared's blip.tv channel.
You can also see an aggregation of N2Y3 related content from the NetSquared site, and other sites on the NetSquared Conference News Page. If you don't see your blog posts, video, or other media from N2Y3, tag it "n2y3con" and post the URL in the comments of this post.

Sorry for the delay folks, there's so much here at N2Y3 it can be a little distracting.
I've cut-and pasted my notes from the session, which aren't pretty, but they get the job done. If you have questions about my notes, or want me to clarify something, let me know.
I can be reached via director at knowledge as power dot org, and you can find my work at Knowledge As Power where we help individuals become effective citizens in the legislative process.
This is Brenda Hough, live-blogging from the NetSquared Conference. Votes are being counted and we will soon know the winners of this year's Featured Projects competition. While we're waiting to hear the results, we're hearing a panel discuss "What's changed since last year?"
Rick Hess, TechSoup board member, is moderating the panel discussion, which consists of three individuals representing last year's winning projects.

Hi again. It's Brenda Hough here, live-blogging one of the final events. It's hard to believe that it was just yesterday that I was blogging the 21 Featured Project Two Minute Introductions. Now I'm back in the same room, blogging the 21 Featured Project Two Minute Wrap-Ups!
