<p class=MsoNormal>Hi Annamarie,<br>
<br>
I had the same thought. I've actually run three Barcamps but I ran them with
true Open Space facilitation. I've not actually been to a "normal"
Barcamp - but I've had first hand reports. Although there aren't any preset
presentations by the conference facilitators, there is heavy peer pressure on
the attendees to present. The friend who had been to Boston BarCamp said all
the sessions were 30 minutes long powerpoint presentations - and she was afraid
when she came to Missoula BarCamp that there would be the same pressure.<br>
<br>
It's very cool that the BarCamp format is fully open and people can bring their
slides - but if it doesn't use Open Space facilitation - it isn't as free
flowing, it doesn't invite as many questions or conversation. It's why Kaliya
calls it a bunch of Alpha Geeks rushing at the blank wall to grab the best
spots.<br>

<p class=MsoNormal>As always a cogent and interesting response. More or less
what I expected.  Except that what I experienced seemed to me to be less
work than the opening circle, statement of principles and law,  and then
opening of the marketplace. So I'm not clear about how OS is less work than an
unconference. <o:p></o:p></p>

<div>

<p class=MsoNormal>To Kari's question.  The unconference I attended had
maybe 15 round tables holding 8 people apiece.  People sat where ever.
 Traditional introductions (we may have gone around the room?), and thank
you's to organizers. Statement of the four time periods and an invitation to
convene a group if you wanted. The wall was outside  in the hall.  It
became apparent to me that for each time session there was at least one person
who had a prepared talk by prearrangement. I learned some stuff but
certainly didn't feel permission to leave a session if I was uninterested.
 It was all about Twitter and therefore many people had their heads into
their iphones and such as they twittered about what was happening. That's a
different way of attending.<o:p></o:p></p>

color:#1F497D'>Annamarie – Unconferences have been around for a bit and
as I remember some of the earliest unconferencers included the likes of Michael
Herman. So if there is a problem for the OS community I would guess that it is
at least partially self-inflicted<span class=apple-converted-space> </span></span><span

color:#1F497D'>But personally I don’t see much of a problem. Actually I
see it as part of a much larger grand natural experiment in which we all are
learning how to operate most successfully in a self organizing world (the only
one we have, I think). In this context there is no “one right way”
– but surely there are better and more effective ways. The name of the
game is finding these “ways” and the means is multiple 
experiments. I would take Unconference to be one such experiment. Measured
against the simplicity of what might be called “classic Open Space”
(sit in a circle, create a bulletin board, open a marketplace – Go to
work) I find the Unconference to be overdone. In short they are working much
too hard! This isn’t wrong, just inefficient. However, measured against
the standard conference, an Unconference is truly a breath of fresh air. In
conversations with unconferencers I suggest that they have made a very good
start – and now why not think of one more (maybe many more) things not to
do? If we (I) have learned anything in this adventure it is that organizing a
self organizing system is a questionable undertaking involving a great deal of
unnecessary work. To say the least.</span><span lang=EN-US><o:p></o:p></span></p>
