Friends,

Many of us know and love TED. It brings together an extraordinary
group each year. The catch for many of us, though, is the cost: $6,000.

So I'm helping organize BIL with some friends, a free unconference,
which will start March 1st and 2nd ? coinciding with TED's last day on
Saturday.

We hope BIL can be a perfect match to TED. We already have the thumbs
up from TED Curator Chris Anderson, who has been very supportive.

Here's the site: <http://www.bilconference.com>

..and a great plug from Ethan Zuckerman, one of TED's bloggers: <http://www.ethanzuckerman.com/blog/2008/01/26/bil-and-ted-an-excellent-adventure
 >

If you can attend, please add your name to the guest list. We're also
expecting quite a few TEDsters to attend, and some to speak.

I hope to see you in Monterey in a few weeks. Just give me a call
(650-353-6063) or Todd Huffman (562-537-1320) if you need anything.

Cheers!

Tyler

PS Props go to the affable and way-too-cool Huffman for this
brainchild. Oh, and please help spread the word!

Bilconference looks like a great idea and inspirpation for events at The
Complex. Check out their Bilders toolkit to bring and the fact they're using
pbwiki:

I'm surprised LCD projector is not on the list

Also reminds me of barcamp: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BarCamp
