The word “unconference” merely means that unlike highly structured conferences, this one will be a little free-form. Participants will have a chance to suggest the direction the sessions go in.

It will be very participatory.

I am interested in the co-working and office space concept, and I want to discuss it with you. I have had a physical meeting place for entrepreneurs and business minded individuals in Gothenburg, Sweden, and I am interested in creating contact with other spaces for life-work activities.

The open form of the activity sounds fascinating. I am interested to learn more about the Office Space Coworking in Akron. I have to get in touch with Kelly Brown. It is funny to see that they are using a similar template theme (Revolution Magazine) as my new website. Maybe you could have my site a "case" during the conference?! ;) What should a site have nowadays in order to feel fresh, up-to-date, following the AIDA rule, be "sticky", enable two-way communication, etc... I could be your guinea pig! ;) Click on "Martin Lindeskog" Says if you want to see the "under construction" site. The only thing that I have added so far, are some ads by Chitika and a speech from TED by Evan Williams on listening to Twitter users. I would be interested in attending a conference together with participants from the whole supply chain, e.g., suppliers, purchasers, sales people, consumers, management and business leaders, etc. Anita,
