While I was in Chicago, Ryanne Hodson , who I met at last year's BlogHer, is in Cambodia and Southeast Asia with Jay Dedman to document the work of Project Hope International. So, while at BlogHer 07 I had a little bit of a personal learning mission: What can I learn about mobile video blogging in a global context?
It was also wonderful to see Cynthia Samuels (BlogHer); Jocelyn Harman (Care2); Bill Strathan (Network(ed) for Good); Michael Hoffman (NTEN); Christina Arnold (Cambodia); Kate Bladow ; and many others. Wendy and I facilitated an unconference session on listening later in the day and I’ll share what we learned in a second post.
It's unconference style, and very supportive atmosphere for women who work in technology and also want to encourage more women to get involved. Deb Roby a BlogHer Blogger. Two of my favorite bloghers who have worked in the nonprofit sector were also in the room, Liz Henry and her sister. That's the coffee cup from She's Geeky.
A couple weeks ago I asked you and the Have Fun * Do Good Facebook group for suggestions for Changebloggers, people who are using their blog, podcast or vlog to raise awareness, build community, and/or facilitate readers/listeners/viewers' taking action to make the world a better place. A conference or unconference?
I've seen this used frequently with "unconference" or "open space" technology-oriented conferences and workshops. For example, during the Global s London Summit, a wiki was used to capture a brainstorming session and then to help bring those ideas foward in the months following the gathering.
