I was recently asked me about my recommendations for conducting effective online conferences (virtual conference). They had attended the LearnTrends free online conference. Session timing and design is difficult online. Many people freely text chat, but don’t like to speak online. Assign people into roles.

It seems that face-to-face and online presenting are becoming more similar. You can get the audience to provide thoughts and suggestions just like chat online. In fact, this is on of my favorite things about online presentations (see Examples of eLearning 2.0 It used to be that your online audience was distracted.

Free learning can come from groups like Work Literacy that provided a large online learning experience for free, or from LearnTrends that produces amazing content like LearnTrends 2009 for free. Free Learning may not be as high a quality – although I would claim that LearnTrends and WorkLiteracy filled niches.

I have followed Robin online for years. A few years ago, I cajoled Robin into making a presentation at the online LearnTrends conference I was running with George Siemens and Tony Karrer. He exhorted us all to come to the shared online map. He had curation down before anyone else had thought about it. He brokers wisdom.
