The next couple of days I will be attending the Lift France 11 conference, titled: “Be Radical!”.
I have high ambitions for the way that I will be reporting on what I see, hear and do. I read this excellent guide for conference bloggers which has inspired me to try to liveblog all the sessions that I am attending (or at least have a post up a few minutes after the session has finished. I will also be experimenting with two new pieces of hardware: a Livescribe Echo and Kokak Playtouch. I have zero experience with either of these things, so no guarantees for any decent results.
The conference itself is different from the ones I visit usually. It does have a track about the transformation of the way we work, innovate and learn (see: the non-learning professionals already know that working is becoming the same thing as learning!), but the focus in a broader sense is on how digital technologies are affecting society.
Check out the programme and let me know if there is anything you would like me to enquire more about.
I’d be interested to hear about your experience with using livescribe. I have been thinking of getting one myself, mainly as a way to digitise my extensive reading notes. Using it for liveblogging events is another interesting use case.
I will make sure to try and do a post on the livescribe. I have only touched it for 2 minutes and dislike nothing so far (which I can’t say about the Kodak!).
