<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I have set up a blog called Rethinking Academic Conferences to facilitate discussions about possibilities for making academic gatherings more human, humane, fun, interesting, accessible, eco-friendly, accountable, and responsible. </DIV>

<DIV>I won't be able to contribute much myself at the moment as real life has marked my dancecard for the next few turns on the floor, but if anyone else would like to join up as a member of a team blog please do get in touch and I will add your name to the contributor list. Please pass this on to anyone else that you think might be interested in contributing.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>All the best,</DIV>
