Some thoughts on back channel and intermediated conferences from Raymond M. Kristiansen

Just a bookmarker here of two of Raymond's post/observations about the back channel at LesBlogs. Intermediated conferences :
"Yesterday and today I attended the back-channel of the Les Blogs 2.0 conference in Paris. I couldn’t make it to the conference in meatspace, but I could still follow parts of the discussion on the irc chat [log] and via Flickr, Technorati and so on.

Back-channels at conferences. How do they affect the relationship between those on the stage and the audience?"
The second is his post and link to video of an interaction between a presenter (Mena Trott) and Ben Metcalfe who had been active in the back channel - this time on the topic of civility in backchannel and blog comments.

I'm tracking this topic because Bill Anderson and I are running a panel at SXSW on this topic. More grist for the mill.

A couple of other references to the above story.

I've been tracking it, as well, in my del.icio.us links (backchannnel+lesblogs).

It's rather nice not being at the center of the storm this time. :)

And I'm really curious to hear more about your panel! What's the specific topic? Who's going to be on it?

I'm going to blog about it today or tomorrow. I realized I had not done that. Just awaiting word from my co-conspiritors!
