So much has happened in the last month since this event, it is impossible to share it all. During the course of the afternoon, over 60 people spent some time jamming on the things that matter most to them. We saw some great demos, made new friends and expanded our view of the world. You can read, listen and view more of the event through "our conversation" page (temporarily links to Technorati). But before you do, joine me in lavishing praise on our Patrons and all the organizers who helped pull the event together - especially my girflfriend, Kristie Wells and Brian Shields from KRON4. This whole thing could not have happened without them and the other organizers who helped pull it all together that day.

The event raised over $1,000 for the Internet Archive and we are donating more than $100 to the Creative Commons fundraising drive. In our efforts to be a transparent organization, we posted an overview of the event financials for everyone to see who is interested. My personal wrap up is here and you can still visit the event Wiki, the original event site and the Insytes Blog for more details. (the other pages from the nav above will be linked soon 11/3-CH)

The BrainJams Rent an Expert event is taking place on June 15, 2006 in San Francisco, CA. We still need a venue, though we already have a few very good experts offering their skills and experience to the community.

Web 2point1 2006 Just Announced!

Given the latest dustup over Tom Rafferty being sued for holding a Web 2.0 event/conference/workshop/whatever, we are officially announcing plans to hold another Web2point1 event that will probably be held on Novemeber 9-10, 2006. More details to come as this becomes clear, but in keeping with tradition, the cost for registration will be $3.29 - still 1/1000th of the cost of “that-phase-of-the-web-that-shall-happen-before-web-3.0 (no more, no less etc etc)” event taking place at about the same time. (credit to Salim Ismail for the very funny take ala Monty Python) All registration feeds collected will be donated to Creative Commons.

More details to come once we get through the heckuva busy month that is May-June.
