If we're in the era of 'web 2.0', then it stands ti reason that we're also in the era of 'conference 2.0', doesn't it? No, I'm not saying that we're going to go un-conference on everything, but I would like to see a bit more in the area of 'social & technological awareness' around conference communications.
I'd like to get your thoughts on what makes a good social media toolset for conferences.
I've come up with these tools so far, please add your thoughts in the comments:
1. A blog (of course)
2. A wiki
3. A Frappr map (like Loic's) of conference attendees, speakers and followers
4. A del.icio.us account tracking links about the conference
5. A flickr photstream with conference photos, tagged with the appropriate keywords
6. A technorati link to the conference keywords & tags
7. Buzznet Buzzwords
What else have you all used to bring social media to your conference?
What else would you try if you had the chance?
[UPDATE] LesBlogs did a great job using social media for conference coverage.

I'll be posting this on the WOMBAT blog later, but I wanted to introduce y'all to the WOMBAT Bloggers who will be covering the WOMMA WOMBAT conference next week in Orlando. In true ethical WOM fashion, we'd like to fully disclose our involvement as quasi-compensated blogging pro's who happen to be just mad about WOMMA!
Seriously, our mission is to bring the conference out of the seminar rooms and into your living rooms (or offices, or basements, or wherever you happen to dwell in front of the screen).
And...the bloggers are:
- Toby Bloomberg of Bloomberg Marketing and the Diva Marketing blog.
- Josh Hallet of hyku - another pro blogger and blog consultant
- Marianne Richmond of Resonance Partnership, LLC and the Resonance Partnership Blog
- Me
If you're going to the conference, look us up! You're sure to be blogged!
