But hopefully you won't forget to archive the entire event on YouTube and podcasting sites so that the entire globe can share and offer feedback for a long time.

Ideally, it would be even better to have real time video conferencing and chat - but it seems it is to much of an ordeal for most events - the world is just not ready this decade

I'm looking forward to moderating the panel on "Reaggregating User Generated Content" and the opportunity/role for specialized search to help people do that.

I'll try to post something on the UpTake blog on this between now and the event! Looking forward to it.
