we believe in community

We are starting to plan the program for the Local Government Web Network Conference for 2009, so now is the time where we’d really like your feedback to help us make a better conference for you. To get your feedback in a more interesting way, we are taking a leaf out of Web Directions book, and launching an Ideas Forum. This will allow you to post ideas, comment on other people’s

Didn’t make the conference? Thanks to Viocorp you won’t miss out.

Thanks to our sponsors Viocorp we’re able to provide you with audio recordings of nearly all the presentations from the conference. This is great for any of you who weren’t able to make it to the conference. We understand that distance can be an obstacle especially if you’re based in the outer reaches of New South Wales. It’s also great for those of you were able to be there to refer back to and listen to any of the presentations you didn’t see if you were in the other room!

If you're coming to the conference then there's some great ways you can participate online, and if you're are not lucky enough to be coming you can follow what's happening on Twitter and Flickr.

Register now so you don't miss out!

We Believe In Community: 21 - 22 August 2008

2 full days on web technologies, strategies, creativity, and standards. 12 sessions in 2 streams and 6 plenary sessions from some of the leading experts in the field from Industry and Government.

We've managed to gather an awesome list of speakers for our first conference. Check out the session descriptions and bios on the speakers page now. Okay sorry there's a few gaps, we're finalising a few details still but we're nearly there. Organising the program was a bit like trying to solve a Rubik's cube, but it's looking pretty good now. If you want to know what sessions will be on which day have a look at the draft program (this could be changed before the conference but we'll try and keep it as close to this as possible, we promise!).

We've had a few queries about the conference, here's some of your questions answered...
