In this episode of The JCast Journey, host Darone Ruskay talks about his experiences in the past few weeks going to three distinct conferences. TechCrunch Disrupt NY, The Jewish Futures Conference and BlogWorld and New Media Expo.
Darone talks his many experiences with conferences, but as he has always been the organizer, the new experience of just being an attendee. He discusses the dual experience of learning AND of being part of a larger community.
The opening and closing music in this weeks episode is Come Together, performed by Joe Cocker from the Across The Universe Soundtrack.

Darone has spent the past fifteen years working in the Jewish Education field, providing top-quality Jewish education to the North American community. he served as the Conference Coordinator for The Coalition for the Advancement of Jewish Education (CAJE) for many years. Since then he has worked at United Jewish Communities (UJC), as their Director of Young Leadership Cabinet Membership, at The Jewish Theological Seminary (JTS), in the Department of Institutional Advancement, and most recently as the Managing Director of The Skirball Center for Adult Jewish Learning at Temple Emanu-El. He brings his passion for Jewish Life and Education, as well as his personal interest and passion for media and technology to this new venture, and is perfectly suited to lead the JCast Network (which he might just have to call JCN as he is so used to working at institutions that use their initials.)
