What is "ifest"

iFest - the Internet Festival and Conference was a festival held in Edinburgh, Scotland in August 2007, at the same time as many of the other Edinburgh Festivals. iFest is designed to complement and work with the other established festivals rather than compete directly.

Launched in Edinburgh in September 2006, it consists of public-focused events and activities and a conference.

It brought together people from the arts, film, music, media, broadcasting, technology and telecommunication industries, as well as anyone interested in the cultural dimension of the World Wide Web to examine innovative cultural uses of the internet.

The festival was organised by the iFest Partnership, which is currently seeking input and suggestions to develop the festival.
