Q. How do you think the financial crisis will affect the Web 2.0 business itself?
A. Web 2.0 is the Recession Diet.
That was just one of the many questions that was asked during the Tim O’Reilly and Web 2.0 Expo conference chair roundtable that was held at Web 2.0 Expo Europe last October in Berlin. This intimate and exclusive session was the culmination of an intense blogger relations program dubbed Blogging Web 2.0 Expo Europe.
It began as an invite-only Q&A to 25 of our strongest blog partners but with all the live-tweeting and live-blogging about it we ended up with about 50 total visitors in our community lounge - listening to Tim, Jen and Brady share insights, answer question and in general chat, in an intimate and casual setting.
We viewed the session as a huge success and everyone involved had a lot of fun participating (which is the most important thing, right?).
It’s a bit late in coming, but the winter hibernation is slowly subsiding… so here is the promised recap of the really amazing content that came from this event. Thank you everyone who participated. We really appreciated your collaboration, enthusiasm, and attendance. It was truly all about community!
The BerlinBlase crew did a phenomenal job capturing the event through their live tweets and some video. They consolidated everything into a single page for your viewing pleasure. Check out the links!
