Brighton NGOs Share "Web 2.0-Style"

Thanks to everyone who came out for Take Back the Web yesterday at the Friends' Meeting House in Brighton! I hope you got as much out of the day as I did :)

A big thanks as well to veteran blogger Dave Walsh for his workshop on blogging (and for describing what it was like to blog on his most recent expedition aboard the Greenpeace Esperanza), to conference co-organiser Chris Anderson for his workshops on wikis and podcasting, to Francis Irving for presenting on the many powerful tools that mySociety has developed and made available for others to use through open APIs, the participants of my workshop on RSS for putting up with the references to grease, vaseline and all things lubricatory, and to EVERYONE for contributing to the amazing vegan feast we enjoyed — sharing (and mashing up) the dishes we all brought really added something to the event, don't you think?

I hope that people will continue to add their notes to and benefit from the conference wiki, and it'd be great if people could share their photos by adding them to the Take Back the Web Flickr group! I see Jeremy Keith has uploaded and tagged a few photos "takebacktheweb" — if other people have more, please add them to the pool!

And finally, thank you, Chris, Helen, Sara and Tim for being so easy and fun to work with this on this event. Let's do it again some time :)
