I had a brief attempt at getting something together earlier in the year, but didn't give myself enough time - and set it up in an unfamiliar part of the country. All you need to do is provide a location with an internet connection, and let participants volunteer to run sessions in advance. A bloggers' clinic would fit well with that too.<br /><br />A final thought: this also reminds me of a discussion we had at the <a href="http://www.alexfoster.me.uk/2006/09/20/brighton-blogmeet-report/" rel="nofollow">first conference Liberal Drinks</a>, which was that we ought to make it happen outside conference time and outside London.Nileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03060945134872813307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6606798.post-47944785081486136662009-08-11T22:22:46.282+01:002009-08-11T22:22:46.282+01:00Let's chat (and with others) at conference and...Let's chat (and with others) at conference and see if we can come up with a plan.Mark Packhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596137350950820090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6606798.post-18133959897132030472009-08-11T22:12:23.961+01:002009-08-11T22:12:23.961+01:00Good point.

Mind you, do we have to wait for a conference to come round, and indeed is conference the best venue?<br /><br />Would a day social / training / sharing / chocolate eating session on a weekend at another time of year work better?Mark Packhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596137350950820090noreply@blogger.com
