Project management consulting and training for social change organisations.
Next Wednesday I'll be heading to Kensington Town Hall for The Future of Web Apps — a one-day conference bringing together a panel of Web 2.0 celebrities including Joshua Schachter from del.icio.us, David Heinemeier Hansson from 37signals (creators of Basecamp), Eric Costello from Flickr, and others, to discuss how next generation web applications are changing the way people interact online. The organizers of the event have put up a wiki and are accepting questions-for-the-panel submissions from conference participants. Only one question will be chosen — here's mine:
The venue has wifi, so I may be able to blog on what I learn as the conference is going on — if not, I'll be sure to summarize things afterwards :)
Rob, sounds great. Please post your learnings esp. from David Heinemeier Hansson. We're heavy into using Basecamp and very interested in the vision of other services they might role out.
PS: thanks for all the great resources on your site. I've been managing projects for almost a decade but am always learning from you.
Word out to you in the UK from KMarket.

I'll learn all I can and post all I learn. I'd be very interested in your thoughts on what Basecamp may be missing, BTW. I blogged an open question to the not-for-profit project management community on the subject a few weeks back and have been having some interesting conversations since then offline....
Take care, Shannon. All the best :)
