Northern Voice was amazing again this year. I dare say the best ever!

For me as always it was about the people. The unexpected: like connecting with Robin Yap in the Social Media Diaspora Session. Or Second Life super scripter Catherine Winters (wow! yet another demonstration of the world class talent we have here in Vancouver!)

And the expected: Dave Olson, social media rockstar (his 3P's of Podcasting session was superb; it was my favourite of the few I managed to squeeze in between organizing!), vancouver fashion photographer Kris' fantastic photography session. Anil Dash's humbly understated but brilliant keynote on blog persistence and awareness. And so much more.

That's right it's only $30 for a single day and $50 for both days as opposed to $40 for one day and $60 for both days at the door. I bet we'll sell out like last year so pre-registration is recommended. Register now! I am biased since I am one of the organizers but you won't find a better conference value and the attendees are diverse. It's a great stew of technical people and non technical people and people who are new to this read/write web aka Web 2.0 as well as the "old hands".

UPDATE: Forgot to mention that speaker submissions are open. Submit now! All you need is a well written abstract about a blogging related topic like videoblogging, podcasting, blogging, Second Life, etc.

Northern Voice 2007 is happening again (yes! it's one of my favourite conferences because we welcome and get a very diverse crowd of knitters and other non techie bloggers, video bloggers and podcasters in addition to techies) February 23 and 24, 2007 and Boris, Kris and I are again helping to organize along with the rest of the fabulous crew (Lauren, Cyprien, Darren and Brian)
