This is a brief report and things we learned about the experimental ‘knowledge networking’ and ‘social reporting’ facilitation work done at Online Information 2008 , co-authored between David Wilcox and Emma Wallace and me.
As delegates entered this information as part of their profiles, this gathered two ‘tag clouds’ which reflected the interests of the attendees and gave them a natural route to finding eachother. We worked with Lorna Candy and the team at Incisive Media to help them provide more networking opportunities for delegates and speakers before and during the conference, online and offline, using different tools.
