Words and videos from the Partnership Symposium
Posted by Brent Dixon on October 6th, 2008
The Partnership Symposium was a huge success. Thanks so much to everyone who organized, attended, or dropped by the chat room and live stream. Between the insights, Jerry-Springer-style fisticuffs, and Rock Band…it was an action-packed event.
Videos from the live stream are available after the jump. Or click the video window below (Heads up: When you click through, some of the videos start to auto-play. This is a Ustream bug, but should only last a few seconds.):

Do you have thoughts or suggestions for next year’s Symposium? We’d love to hear about them in the comments.

A couple of notes and comments:
First: I’m sorry to the speakers who’s great sessions I wasn’t able to capture due to technology problems.
Second: I know the quality isn’t top-notch on these videos, but that’s the price of streaming video. In the future, I’d like to use one camera for live-streaming, and another for capturing high-quality video for later release. Live and learn.

Thanks so much for grabbing all of this video, Brent. I’ll be sure to send the link on to those who weren’t able to attend.
Mike,
Thanks a lot man. I’ve also added your blog to the roster of Symposium blog coverage. Great meeting you last week!
You guys are so cutting edge! Thanks for putting all this out there. I have really enjoyed the videos I’ve watched so far.
Thanks for doing an awesome job broadcasting and archiving these Brent. It was an awesome event and I’m glad I can share it with some people here that weren’t able to make it.
I can’t tell if its fear or determination in the eye’s of William in that picture. I know if it was me facing down The Shev it would be all fear haha.
