Announcing the PdF 2007 unConference
By Joshua Levy, 04/25/2007 - 12:38pm

You already know that the 2007 PdF Conference is on Friday, May 18th, but did you know that the First Annual PdF unConference will be held the next day, Saturday, May 19th?

What's an "unconference"?

The idea is simple. At an unconference, there are no set presenters and no designated audience. Anyone and everyone can schedule a session, discussion, or demonstration, either before the day on the PdF unConference wiki or at the unConference itself. The PdF unConference is a way of extending Friday's discussion to Saturday, creating an open environment for digging into the details and nitty-gritty of how we're all using technology to change politics. Tickets for the unConference are $35 and we'll provide coffee/tea, lunch, and wifi.

The PdF unConference is the perfect chance to demo your new project or hash out that question about tech politics that's been keeping you up at night, and to do it in collaboration with some of the best minds in technology and politics.

You can go here to register for both the main conference and the unConference.
