Northern Voice is a blogging and social media conference, held in Vancouver every late spring since 2005 that attracts a host of prominent and not-so-prominent bloggers, social media experts, and journalists, and some who wear all three hats. It’s “Canada’s first weblogging social media conference.” Even if Northern Voice is not about technical writing per se, it is about writing and it is about technology, so there is much that technical writers can find of interest.
