Here’s a quick guide on using Discord and YouTube to participate in our 100% Digital conference!
Get a Ticket
You’ll need to register at EventBrite to get a ticket. We will never sell your contact information to a third party. When you receive the “ticket” from EventBrite, it will have instructions on connecting to Discord and the link to the YouTube channel.
YouTube
Keynotes, talks, panels, and other content will be streamed via YouTube. The link to the YouTube channel will be provided in the Eventbrite Email.
Discord
Participation–including the hallway track, discussion, OpenSpaces, Party Games, and Sponsor Rooms–are hosted in Discord. Discord provides both video and chat interaction.
You will need to download and install The Discord Client, register for a Discord Account, and join the conference Discord Server via the link provided in the Eventbrite email.
Hallway Track
Please feel free to chat with your fellow conference attendees in the Grand Hall and Watercooler channels. Sponsors are available in their rooms to demonstrate their products.
OpenSpaces
One of the features we’ve all missed the most during the past year has been the free-form conversations and user-driven nature of OpenSpaces, part of the “unconferences” format. We’ll be using Discord and Mural to run a Digital OpenSpaces! Watch the video below to see how this will work.
