So far, Gnomedex 6.0 (an annual "unconference the focuses pretty much on the blogging community) is so much more interactive than Gnomedex 5.0. Chris and Ponzi have tried really hard to get rid of the boundary between the presenters and the audience. Well over half of each presentation is dedicated to audience comments and participation, much of it in the form of heated discussion and debate.
Here are MindManager maps for each of today’s speakers.

Cool. Finally a (un)conference in a format I can understand and digest.
On another note the link to your blog is cool. I needed a button for my undernourished blog.

Thanks for the note about the “exclusive” Gnomedex post. (I hope the short description and, oh yeah, the link, make it a big clearer…)Also the bluedot link is correct now. Thanks for that.

Hey there, The mindmap blog is a pretty cool idea. It’s a lot of fun to explore and click around. One thing, though, your link from the Blue Dot preso yesterday should be to http://bluedot.us (not .com). Thanks!

It would be helpful if you told us uninitiated folks exactly what Gnomedex is. I feel rather excluded under these circumstances and I’m sure that is not your intention.
The blog would have been beter if it started with something like: “Gnomedex 6 – this year’s meeting of short people – got off to a good start …”.
