Pixelated is a free full-day online conference with some of the world's leading speakers on the topic of how business is changing including: Sir Ken Robinson, Seth Godin, Chris Anderson, Avinash Kaushik, Chris Brogan and many more.
It is 100% free and it starts right now.
The idea for this online video conference mash-up was inspired (or stolen) by Six Pixels of Separation friend, Bryan Eisenberg (co-author of Call To Action, Waiting For Your Cat To Bark? and Always Be Testing). On his GrokDotCom Blog, he created OnClick: The Online Marketing Virtual Conference Mashup. Eisenberg collected, gathered and aggregated some of the best presentations he's uncovered online on the topic of Online Marketing, and then formatted the video viewing as if he were the conference organizer. It's a full-day (literally) of amazing online video.
Here is Pixelated - Your New Business Virtual Conference. In this full-day online conference, you will get an overview of how business is changing. You'll hear from educators, marketers, authors, technicians and business leaders. You will be inspired, educated and motivated to think differently about your business and how to grow it... all from the comfort of your own computer.
No travel. No airport line-ups. No hotels. No fees. No hidden fees. Just brilliant insights to spark your imagination and push your business forward.

Wow, great idea. I can think of all kinds of uses for an on-line conference...I'm stealing this idea for sure! Thanks...

While I appreciate all the kind comments and the tweets, this really was stolen from Bryan Eisenberg at GrokDotCom who did it first.
That being said, I think I'm going to run a bunch of Pixelated conferences online going forward.
It reminds me of when I was a teenager and used to make mix tapes :)

This is really the best idea for a conference (and I´ve just been to Picnic08 in Amsterdam) - because I don´t need to convince any of these finance guys that its worth it for the agency to send me there ;)
I just will miss the interesting chats if you have on such conferences.

Chris Brogan has pushed the Pixelated idea even further.
He's right, why not start your own?
I'll attend!

How about a twitter hashtag for this conference? It would be fun to continue the conversation with all the virtual atendees.

This is a great idea. It might be a nice way to bring new ideas to the university without having to shell out thousands. Thanks!

Very cool, and with Chris Brogan's inspiration, I've tried to take the concept out of the mar/comm industry and into the book publishing world.

Thanks for idea, Mitch!

Mitch - Great idea! I heard of this through Chris Brogan and created my own to add to the collection. I hope you and others enjoy.

Great collection, Mitch! I remember kicking around the idea of starting an online conference a while back, just to keep the mileage down... and then you just go ahead and do this. Brilliant!

I watched David Heinemeier Hansson talk first, because I'd not heard of him and, I concede, I couldn't resist the title.
It was one of the best web business talks I've ever seen.
I think it's worth viewing more than once. I'm already sharing it with my business partners.
Thanks Mitch for posting it.
Posted by Rosh- New Media photographer
..... And yes, this is a great idea. I've also been thinking about a similar idea with photography videos at new media photo.
I'm going to take a look a what others have done too and get on it.
thanks again,
Rosh

Great idea and definitely a cool thing to find on a dreary Monday morning. Thanks Mitch - and I have to admit that I'm inspired to do the same!
Love the mix tape analogy - I bet we're going to see everyone's head space being played and shared even more after this.

Thanks Mitch! I LOVE this concept. What a great idea. I've always wanted to put together my dream conference...an homage to that age old question "Who would you invite to dinner if..." Here is the first in my conference series. I'm looking forward to see everyone's Pixelated Conference!
