Unconferences are really good at collecting gobs of data, like Flickr photos, Tweets, and session notes.Following Twitter conversation is simple by subscribing to Twitter feeds from search.twitter.com, but often event hashtags are unstandardized or misspelled. It’s always nicer to be able to subscribe for a single feed than a bunch of overlapping feeds. Additionally, there is often duplicate content.
There are also Flickr pictures involved, and it would be nice to be able to get get all of the updates from drop.io, Flickr, and Twitter in one feed, so that one can see how the event is progressing in real time.
So I did just that.

One of the great things about WhereCamp PDX is that you can E-mail session notes, pictures and other resources to a drop.io box. To do this, simply send an E-mail wherecamppdx@drop.io. You can see the drop.io inbox for session content here.
