Blog post: How to run a great unconference session

Today the team that is planning the unconference in Upstate New York met with our student volunteers. (See An unconference in Upstate New York) We have a dozen graduate students from the iSchool at Syracuse University that will help us with the wiki as well as during the event on March 4 & 5 in East Syracuse, NY.

While looking for information that will help then understand how unconferences work, I found this great blog post by Scott Berkun entitled "How to run a great unconference session." At the bottom are links to additional information on unconferences and conferences. Wow! I wish we had found this months ago...but I'm also glad that we found it now. First, I know there are things we can learn from the posts before our event in a few weeks. Second, I can see that we're on the right track with what we've done so far. However, I'm also seeing that we could have been more creative in the sessions that we planned. C’est la vie! We'll use the info for our next unconference.
