Dear net2 community - whoever you (we) are!

I am a seasoned veteran when it comes to 'attending' 'un'conferences online (living in South Australia).  I am a newbie to this community and to facilitating conferences in general.  I have volunteered to help a local organisation with their conference here in Australia next year - especially with regard to the 'online' components.

I would love to swap ideas (hopefully publicly via a forum like this blog) and offer my services as a remote tester for the online components of your conference in May 2006.

(splash) - well at least the waters not too cold :-)

While packing for this journey I posted a few reservations about bloging in the TechSoup Town Hall (kind of an insurance policy in case I find the water a bit too deep). I tried to put a link here to the TechSoup post but this blog doesn't want to accept standard html tags (? - first lesson when travelling I guess... learn the road rules!) 

Marnie kindly moved the post to a new discussion thread - no replies yet but looking forward to reading other people's views and hopefully generating a worthwhile discussion.
