That was what we put on the front of the t\u2011shirts this year, #nv11<\/a>. Some bright spark (I for\u00adget who, sorry, the two days blur togeth\u00ader a bit) poin\u00adted out that the t\u2011shirts were green with NV<\/span>, which was an impress\u00adive pun, or at least bet\u00adter than any\u00adthing I could come up with on my own.<\/p>\n

As always, the days were full, and this year I made it to the party at the Aca\u00addem\u00adic as well, which gave me a chance to chat to dif\u00adfer\u00adent people. I\u2019m still try\u00ading to fig\u00adure out wheth\u00ader I liked the Moose cock\u00adtail the Aca\u00addem\u00adic designed for us or not. The food was good, and the candy bar went down well with everyone.<\/p>\n

I man\u00adaged to miss the morn\u00ading key\u00adnote (the school run took pri\u00ador\u00adity), so for me the ses\u00adsions part of the con\u00adfer\u00adence star\u00adted with the first pan\u00adel I mod\u00ader\u00adated: Court\u00ading Con\u00adtro\u00adversy: Dan\u00adcing with the Dev\u00adil<\/a>. Rebecca Cole\u00adman<\/a>, Kazia Mul\u00adlin<\/a>, and Lor\u00adraine Murphy<\/a> had everything so well organ\u00adised that I did\u00adn\u2019t need to do any\u00adthing, I just sat there and watched and listened, pre\u00adpared to help if they needed it (which they did\u00adn\u2019t). They have all sum\u00admar\u00adised their takes on the pan\u00adel; there are lots of use\u00adful hints in there as to how to deal with con\u00adtro\u00adversy (and any\u00adone who allows any sorts of com\u00adments will). I\u2019m glad I got to listen to this one.<\/p>\n

I sat in on the Social Media and Online Defam\u00ada\u00adtion: Keep\u00ading Out of Court<\/a> pan\u00adel for a bit, some inter\u00adest\u00ading inform\u00ada\u00adtion there about the upcom\u00ading Supreme Court decision on wheth\u00ader link\u00ading to some\u00adthing libel\u00adlous means that you are con\u00adsidered to have libelled someone your\u00adself, which is a fright\u00aden\u00ading concept and will def\u00adin\u00aditely have a chilling effect on spread\u00ading news if it goes the wrong way. Rob Cot\u00adting\u00adham has a sum\u00admary<\/a> in car\u00adtoon form. It was inter\u00adest\u00ading com\u00adpar\u00ading this pan\u00adel with the court\u00ading con\u00adtro\u00adversy one; \u201cplay it safe\u201d vs \u201cbe brave\u201d.<\/p>\n

I did\u00adn\u2019t make it to any ses\u00adsions after that on the Fri\u00adday, deal\u00ading with vari\u00adous issues or chat\u00adting with people in the atri\u00adum, but I did make it to the Town\u00adship 7 winetast\u00ading, albeit at the end. And then, of course, the party.<\/p>\n

The party was fol\u00adlowed by the morn\u00ading after, being in time to wel\u00adcome people to the second day and intro\u00adduce Chris Wilson for his key\u00adnote From Dial-up Modems to Post-\u201cSocial Media\u201d: A Jour\u00adney<\/a>. I enjoyed it, espe\u00adcially when he reminded us all just how fast tech\u00adno\u00adlogy has changed and how much of what is avail\u00adable today would have seemed unbe\u00adliev\u00adable 10 or 15 years ago. <\/p>\n

After lunch I mod\u00ader\u00adated Tim\u2019s Sex, Lies, and Wiki\u00adpe\u00addia<\/a> talk, which, of course, did\u00adn\u2019t need much mod\u00ader\u00ada\u00adtion. Tim has\u00adn\u2019t writ\u00adten up his talk, but a search on \u201cTim Bray wiki\u00adpe\u00addia #nv11<\/a>\u2033 will bring up lots of sum\u00admar\u00adies writ\u00adten by others.<\/p>\n

Anthony Mar\u00adco\u2019s Pod\u00adcast\u00ading with Soul: Try A Little Ten\u00adder\u00adness<\/a> was a mix of music and advice on pod\u00adcast\u00ading. He used the music to show how the same basic mes\u00adsage (or melody) can sound very dif\u00adfer\u00adent, depend\u00ading on how it\u2019s presen\u00adted, and talked about how to get that joy and inspir\u00ada\u00adtion into pod\u00adcast\u00ading. I found it inter\u00adest\u00ading, even though I don\u2019t listen to pod\u00adcasts, with inspir\u00ada\u00adtion for writ\u00adten blog\u00adging as well. <\/p>\n

The last pan\u00adel was Altru\u00adism vs Nar\u00adciss\u00adism: what\u2019s in it for the online review\u00ader?<\/a> with Mon\u00adica Miller<\/a>, Kyrsten Jensen, Nicole Christen, and Mar\u00adina Antunes. I ended up ask\u00ading quite a few ques\u00adtions of the pan\u00adel to get more details on inter\u00adest\u00ading items. The advice can be best summed up as: keep your integ\u00adrity. Don\u2019t say you like it if you don\u2019t, but also don\u2019t be too harsh on small inde\u00adpend\u00adents. In some cases, just don\u2019t post a pub\u00adlic review, but in most cases, say what you really think (while stress\u00ading it\u2019s your opin\u00adion and exper\u00adi\u00adence, not Uni\u00adver\u00adsal Truth). The ses\u00adsion was lower energy than lots, since it was get\u00adting a little late in the day, and Kyrsten had almost lost her voice, but I think people found it interesting.<\/p>\n

And that was it! North\u00adern Voice over for anoth\u00ader year. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
