Abstract
The increasing availability of WiFi networks in conference
venues is an opportunity to provide additional services for
conference delegates and to enhance and enrich the
learning experience.
This paper reviews experiences of use of networked
applications in a conference environment and outlines a
number of potentially useful technologies. The paper
addresses potential concerns over use of networked
technologies including the dangers of disruption and
distraction, legal and copyright issues as well as the danger
of being over-fixated on the technologies themselves, rather
than the uses they can provide.
The paper concludes by summarising the issues which need
to be addressed when considering the provision of
networked services in a conference setting.
