(2004-04-21) Knobel Un Conference

Lance Knobel on structuring an UnConference (in context of Dave Winer organizing Blogger Con; with reference to Open Space). When you have an excellent group of participants (and perhaps even if you don't), something with a loose agenda and discussion leaders who can do the right amount of cajoling and prodding will produce something far more valuable for all involved. I wonder how the Back Channel would work in such a situation?
