The Other Buzz
Buzz narrowly escapes his 15 minutes of fame. Today's NY Times story on back channels at conferences has provoked lots of interesting commentary around the web today. One tidbit to pass along. The story includes the archetypal conference blogging story of the impact of Doc Searls and Dan Gillmor sharing a link from Both "forwarded by a reader in Florida." If you want the story behind the story, go check out Buzz Bruggeman's blog buzzmodo. Buzz was that "reader in Florida" and he describes his near 15 minutes of fame. [via McGee's Musings]
Im posting this to help Buzz get a little more fame, as he deserves. The role of a remote participant has grown because of his role.
With all the attention on heckling, good to note remote participation can also be a positive contributor to an event. Arguably in a position to provide greater focus, they can cull revelvant resources and affirm points made by a speaker.
