I have spent the last couple of days at the Unicom seminar, Web 2.0: Practical Applications for Business Benefit, hosted by Dave Gurteen. As usual, I have notes from the sessions up on Strange Attractor:

• Euan Semple – Opening Keynote: What’s Social Got To Do With Work Anyway?
• Ron Donaldson – The Ecology of Web 2.0
• Luis Suarez – Thinking Out of the Inbox – The changing nature of collaboration
• Penny Edwards – Social Software Applied: in legal and professional services organizations
• Judith Lewis – Online Brand Reputation Management
• Leisa Reichelt – Twitter’s Not A Waste Of Time (in defence of status updates)
• John Meakin – Secure Web 2.0, an opportunity not an oxymoron
• Cathy Ma – Key learning from Wikipedia for business
• Suw Charman-Anderson – The Email Problem and How To Solve it
• Dominic Campbell – Rewiring Relationships: Cyber Citizens and Collaborative Councils
• Marshall Manson – Engaging Social Networks
• Chris Vallance – Radio Beyond the Phone-in: Social media and broadcasting
• Andrew Woolfson – Social Media and its Use: The challenge

Had a great couple of days and met some really lovely people. David’s conferences are always interesting, and I particularly enjoyed the talks by Ron Donaldson, Luis Suarez and Dominic Campbell. Would recommend those ones if you’ve limited time to read through talk notes!
