On May 30-31st, I'll be attending the NetSquared Conference in California, which will convene early adopters, technologists, corporations, philanthropists, and nonprofit and non-governmental leaders to discuss and take concrete steps towards using social web tools like blogging, vlogging, tagging and podcasting for social change. YOU can participate in the conference as well, remotely, in three ways:
  1. Participate in the NetSquared chatroom where speakers like Mike Linksvayer of Creative Commons, Scott Heiferman of Meetup.com and Robyn Deupree of Bloglines will be sharing info and answering questions.
  2. Chat it up in the Conference Hallway chat room. NetSquared is using Gabbly.com for both chats, which is supposedly "super easy and user-friendly."
  3. Post a question to be asked at a conference session, or write a blog post to start the conversation online. Just peruse the conference sessions and click on a theme and session topic that interests you. At the bottom of the session description you can add your question or blog post.

Also, there will be recordings from the conference at the Netsquared blog, this podcast address, and at the NetSquared Vlog.
