InSession

Following the lead of other popular unconferences (BarCamp, PodCamp) before us, we’ve adopted three “rules of engagement” for this Sunday’s “Emerging Communication Channels” unconference session, 2:00-5:00pm. (A little different from the rules in the image at the right, but you get the idea!)

3 rules of the IABC unconference

1) Everyone participates. Don’t expect to attend the event and stay quiet. Whether you’re leading one of our breakout sessions or answering and asking questions of your peers, this will be an afternoon for speaking up and getting involved. So, when you pass through the doors of the Osgoode Ballroom East, come ready to contribute!

2) All content is shareable. What happens at the unconference definitely will not stay in the unconference. From blogging, Facebooking,  and tweeting (the hashtag is #IABC10) what you learn to adding session notes to the wiki, everything said and done at the event is fair game for sharing to the web. And when you do post content to sites that you control, please publish under Creative Commons license.

3) Obey the Law of 2 Feet. If the session you join isn’t compelling, you’re expected to leave and try another one!

Short and sweet, right?
