The conference was organized by members of the Vancouver blogging community, who attempted to keep the event accessible to as many people as possible.

    About Northern Voice

    The idea for a Canadian blogging conference was first mentioned on Darren Barefoot's blog in March 2004.

    Conference organizers included Darren Barefoot, Kris Krug, Brian Lamb, Cyprien Lomas, Boris Mann, James Sherret, Travis Smith, Julie Szabo, Roland Tanglao, Lauren Wood, Dale McGladdery, Shane Birley, Allyson McGrane, and Jonathon Narvey.

    Northern Voice started as a one-day event, held on Saturdays. In 2007, a second day was added, for an unconference known as Moose Camp.

    Discussion topics included "how blogging interacts with family life, education, travel, photography, community building and establishing professional profiles."
