The 7th FediForum is happening right now (yesterday, today, and tomorrow). There are two a year and I love going to them.

You can follow along using the hashtag [#FediForum](https://indieweb.social/tags/fediforum)
.

Most of the talks are a bit above my pay-grade, but I always learn something or get to try a new open source/open web technology.

I also get to see many of my buddies on the open social web (AT Proto/Bluesky and ActivityPub) over video from across the web and engage with them all in real time.

The discussions are top notch and there is even a sense of a hallway chat area in the online software Johannes and Anca (the organizers) use.

They also use collaborative note taking, so even though the video/recordings are non-existent, there are great notes collaboratively made and later posted on the [FediForum.org](https://fediforum.org)
 site after the event.

If you get a chance to make a FediForum, you really should attend. The tickets are affordable and the community is so nice!
