Sorry that I wasn't able to attend the Hypertext 2008 conference, but I heard from various sources from Twitter that the conference went very well. So please upload photos and any of your experiences using the social networking tools that I posted here.
I'd like to hear your experiences with the conference.
Till Hypertext 2009!

Networking at Hypertext 2008 - virtually
We've set up several virtual networking channels to help you all keep in touch during and after the Hypertext 2008 conference. So, even if you can't make it to Hypertext, you can still join in the conversation and not be left out!
Completing our plans to practice what we preach and to engage various social networking and linking sites, we now made several new arrangements. In contrast to the already announced LinkedIn group (open only to attendees), the following could be relevant to anyone who is interested in Hypertext 2008:
I. Networking
-------------
Facebook
The Facebook Hypertext 2008 group has been created. To join this Facebook group, go to this URL.
This group is open and can be used for extensive communication with and between the attendees.
II. Resource sharing and bookmarking
------------------------------------
Our preferred tag for all resource sharing sites is hypertext08, however, if you find it hard to type use a brief form ht08
Use the tag "hypertext08" or tag "ht08" for tagging photos that you upload to Flickr.
To view all photos with the tag "hypertext08" or "ht08", go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/hypertext08 or http://www.flickr.com/photos/tags/ht08.
Del.icio.us
In delicious, when you login you can create a bookmark of a web site and tag it "ht08" and "hypertext08". To view all sites bookmarked with ht08 or hypertext08, go to http://del.icio.us/tag/ht08 or http://del.icio.us/tag/hypertext08.
III. Blogging and messaging
---------------------------
A twitter channel for Hypertext 2008 was created: Go to http://twitter.com/ht08 and follow it!
We also created a tweme: http://twemes.com/hypertext08
For your own twitter posts use #hypertext08 or #ht08 or as tags
Hypertext Blog
We remind that Hypertext 2008 has its own blog, which we hope to maintain during the conference

IV. Collaborative recommendation
--------------------------------
To follow a range of cultural events in Pittsburgh during JCDL and Hypertext 2008, use collaborative recommended PITTCULT
http://pittcult.sis.pitt.edu
If your time is limited, you can directly browse events available at each conference day:
http://pittcult.sis.pitt.edu/eventList.jsp?month_int=0&day=19

However, this system can do more for you! PITTCULT is to collect cultural event information in the Pittsburgh area in one place and share the information with your friends. You can find what events are happening in this area and invite or recommend interesting one to your friends. It also could be your personal blog for your cultural events.

Tinderbox day at Hypertext 2008
In association with Eastgate Systems, Inc., a sponsor of Hypertext 2008, a Tinderbox day will be organized directly after HT 2008.
Tinderbox is a spatial hypertext system that helps people make, analyze, and share notes. Over the past five years, Tinderbox has gained an enthusiastic following amongst professionals and scholars of many fields, from art education to forensic psychiatry, from plotting thrillers to political analysis. It joins a simple, flexible, and open data model to rich visualization and representation facilities, seeking to place the tools of knowledge representation at the disposal of the people who need them most urgently and can benefit from them most directly. Tinderbox or Tinderbox upgrade is available for registered delegates of Hypertext 2008 with a discount of $50.
