In Seattle? Come to My Refresh Talk This Monday
By leelefever on May 16, 2007 - 7:29pm
This coming Monday, May 21st at 6pm, I'll be the speaking at the Refresh Seattle event at the Ballard Library. My talk is brand new and called "Your Website is a Party Waiting to Happen". As the description on the site says:
Lee will decode the world of online communities and boil all the hype down to the basic strategies and elements that make online communities work. You'll leave this talk with easy to remember ways to host a successful online community and/or throw one hell of a good party.
As you may be able to tell, the talk is about what hosting real world parties can teach us about online communities. It takes a fun look at the 12 (or so) elements that make both successful.
I hope you can make it - you can RSVP here.
Refresh Seattle is part of Refreshing Cities, "a community of designers and developers working to refresh the creative, technical, and professional culture of New Media endeavors in their areas."



sounds interesting!
will there by a video of your talk? or maybe a transcript?
Blog Post
Hi Ian!
I'm drafting a blog post that will be posted on the same day as the talk - it will make the same points that appear in the talk. I also plan to post the slides with the entry via Slideshare.
rock on
i'm sorry i won't be around to see your talk, lee, but i'm psyched at the location: the ballard library is one of the best spots in seattle. i'll look forward to the blog post / possible video.
