InmanTV Posts Connect Conference Videos

It's interesting how the web has changed the way business is conducted at so many levels. It used to be that when you attended a conference, if you wanted to have a copy of a session or a keynote, you had to pay big bucks for an audio or video tape whether you attended the event or not. You also had to wait for it be produced and mailed to you. Not so in the world of Web 2.0. As I mentioned in a previous post, bloggers report in real time on what's taking place during events. The innovations in digital video allow the capture of event sessions to be uploaded almost immediately after some of them take place. It's a great marketing vehicle for events like Inman and should go a long way toward helping them increase attendance at future events.

InmanTV is in the process of posting some great video, including the Welcome Address, a lively, but civil conversation with Zillow CEO Rich Barton and Dale Stinton, CEO of NAR and more. I thought the idea of taking questions from the audience via text messaging on his iPhone was a brilliant idea on Brad Inman's part. I only wonder if he had to change his phone number afterward (Maybe I'll text him and find out :)

Special thanks to Jamie Glen of Trulia for including MLPodcast.Com in his list of 50 tech innovators during the welcoming address presentation and more importantly, for saving the best for last. :)

Inman Connect Live Bloggers

I wasn't able to make it to the Inman Connect conference in SF this year. Keeping up with the event is being made a little easier this year through the efforts of a few people who are trying to "live blog" some of the sessions and events. David Gibbons of Zillow, Paul Chaney of Blogging Systems and Erik Hersman of Realty Thoughts are doing a great job of it. It certainly has to be difficult given the pace of things at the conference. Folks are tagging blog posts with "connectsf" to help round up content and photos on the web. Thanks to all of you who are taking the time to keep us connected.

Update: My friend, Bill Wendel of the Real Estate Cafe did some great digital note taking during the conference and posted it to his Wiki.
