PDC2008 Open Space Thought – A “How do we keep up with it all” session, meeting, thing?

I’ve been thinking about suggesting, requesting, having, etc an Open Space session at PDC2008 where we get together and talk about how we keep up with it all.

Jason Haley recently asked this question, Question: How do you stay up to date?, and I’d really like to hear what others are doing to help with the deluge of newness. It’s already hard to keep up and PDC2008 is just going to make it worse (in a VERY good way… I love the new stuff we hear about at PDC :) How do we drink from the firehouse and keep our sanity?

 

  • What tools do you use?
  • What techniques?
  • How do you handle those you work with who don’t or won’t keep up?
  • How do you balance the passion of newness with reality?
  • How do you handle your JITL (Just In Time Learning)?
  • How much time is reasonable to spend on “keeping up”?
  • Should we even try to keep up?
  • What works for you? What doesn’t?

 

What do you think? Do you think this is something that might be an interesting PDC2008 Open Space thing?
