Sitting in my apartment about a block away from the Adobe Conference Center, this is how I attended WordCamp Seattle without actually being there in person. (Photo by foleymo)
Of course I miss out on all the cool networking conversations that are going on in the hallways between sessions, but it’s pretty cool that I can follow a lot of what’s going on there and still be close enough to hit up all the event-related parties.
I followed Jeff Pulver’s first 140 Characters Twitter conference in a similar way. I followed it as closely as I could on Twitter in real time, but I had to wait a couple weeks before I could actually watch the conference videos.
The unconference is the best thing to happen to learning junkies like me. I want more!
