As an experiment, Chris Corrigan and I are swapping blogs for a week. I’ll be posting to his blog (Parking Lot), and he’ll be writing here.

I’ve been having online conversations with Chris for a while, and I ran into him at the Practice of Peace conference outside Seattle in november. He works as a facilitator, change agent and problem solver and is a frontrunner in the use and development of Open Space Technology.

To me, this blog swap is an experiment in writing to a different space. To go to new (virtual) surroundings and see what that brings. To play with the format, and see if it’s fun. To improvise around a set of topics that may or may not arise from the new place. To simply try something out of the ordinary. Let’s see what happens.

Welcome Chris, take it away.
