Knowledge, Learning, Community
This item contains just a flavour of what should be a larger work. The author hints at some user-hostile conference design strategies, such as the fixed mic and the deferred question period. I could name so many more. Little things, like the need for signs. Big things, like completely inappropriate (and ill-informed) keynote speakers. Odd things, like the lack of online registration. Necessary things, like the need for a cybercafe or (better) wireless LAN.
