What should I know about hosting an unconference? Have you organized or attended one before? What worked, what didn't? A night out with an old colleague and much discussion about the state of our industry conferences led us to the conclusion that we should host our own. He had recently been to an unconference and really liked it. I've never been - but I like the idea.
My company will be hosting the space and lunch and between us we have enough contacts that we think we can get somewhere between 30-50 people to show up for a one day event. We have a forum setup where people will be able to propose topics and vote on things they'll want to discuss.
I'm wondering if anyone has been to or hosted an event like this and has any advice or general advice on conference hosting in general.
