I was unable to attend the BCEDonline conference so was poking around trying to find some info posted by participants. I came across this reflection piece posted on D'Aarcy Norman's blog about his experience co-keynoting with Stephen Downes and Brian Lamb.

It's a really great read, with many things to learn about making conferences more community friendly. For one thing, I bet their willingness to take risks with the keynote format will go down in history. I found the comment on the importance of anonymous back channels interesting. I've had no experience with this and I'm curious to know how others feel about it. What does the ability to be anonymous contribute to the event?
