We fell behind posting what happened on FediForum Day 1 today. The product announcements and demos were followed by 17 attendee-run unconference sessions, then a though-provoking keynote by Cory Doctorow, and unconference closing.

FediForum: moving the Open Social Web forward
Do you wish people would talk more about some aspect of social media or the open social web that somehow doesn't get as much attention as it should? That's one reason why FediForum is an unconference. You can come, announce the topic, and run a session on it! No need to convince a conference organizer that your topic has merit. Join us Thursday to Saturday this week, online. Registration is still open:

You asked, we listened. FediForum June 5-7 will have keynotes from amazing people: Christine Lemmer-Webber, co-author of the ActivityPub standard and long-term innovator on the federated social web, Ian Forrester, who helped with bringing Mastodon to the BBC and advocates for a public service internet, and Cory Doctorow, long-term digital rights activist, journalist and sci-fi author.
