Snapshot: How can I interact with the conference?

Published Tuesday, October 02, 2007 5:34 PM

Because this is the participative web, there are of course ways to interact with the conference even if you are not physically here.

First of all, we should point out that there has already been some significant uses of the new technologies before the conference even begins. Check out for example these videos, recorded by panellists, posted to YouTube and Google Video and linked to from the OECD.

A special Skype address was also set up with an answering machine so people could record messages and questions on it. But in terms of interacting while the actual meeting is going on you need to know three things:

  1. The live webcast is here. The conference starts 9am EST (see here for what time that is in your part of the world).
  2. You can email questions and messages to participativeweb@oecd.org before or during the meeting where they will be reviewed and possibly read out in the meeting or posted on the Internet.
  3. You can add comments to our blog posts - which we will review and, if appropriate, read into the meeting.
That's it. We look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks so much for reading my question about standards.  It generated a very interesting discussion, particularly about identity in virtual worlds.  (I hope my question inspires some more remote participants to "speak up.")

I hope this Webcast will be available afterwards.  This has been an excellent conversation so far.
