IIW: past and present

May 9th, 2010

IIW logoIt’s that time of year again. The Internet Identity Workshop (IIW X) is coming up in a week. I’m planning to attend, and will keep you informed by video.

Speaking of IIW and videos, I was just reviewing my videos from last year (IIW IX and IIW8). One lesson learned: last year for IIW IX I tried to live stream the sessions but wow, the network at the Computer History Museum is… how shall I say… less than optimal for anything like staying connected. Many of the videos are in pieces, as the streaming failures usually crashed my browser too.

Here’s what I have from IIW-IX. Sorry about the advertising. I can’t turn it off.

In contrast, I learned a different set of lessons for IIW8 (last spring). Those videos were recorded to disk. I had them all available as .mov files, but have recently updated them all to flash (still apparently the most commonly used format). Thanks to TubeMogul for distributing them to Blip.tv and iTunes. Here’s the post with links to each downloadable session.

If you’re inclined to join us for next week’s event, the logo above will take you to the registration page. Otherwise, stay tuned for selected video from this unconference.

Internet Identity Workshop in May!

May 4th, 2009

Internet Identity Workshop logo The spring Internet Identity Workshop is coming up in a couple of weeks, May 18-20. The organizers have extended regular registration prices for another week! If you are interested in Identity, and especially if you are working on developing identity-related technologies or services, membership web sites, or even if you’re just curious about what’s going on in this quickly evolving field, I invite you to join me at this event.

The conference is in Mountain View, between San Francisco and San Jose (do you know the way?). It’s organized as an unconference, which means the sessions are proposed until we get there. All sessions are decided by the participants on the days of the event. That way we all have an equal voice in learning, exploring, and teaching.

The conference ranges from the highly technical geeks and professionals to the interested and curious “newbies.” There will be demos on the last day, and plenty of people to ask questions of. This is a unique and still relatively small group, so the signal to noise is wonderful.

There is a lot to learn, and these are the folks you want to talk with. I encourage you to register today, and look forward to seeing you there!
