Let me just say that I feel incredibly fortunate to have been invited to be a part of Intel CEO Craig Barrett’s keynote speech this morning at NECC. It was an amazingly fun experience for me and my student who was on stage with me, and it was also without question the best opportunity I’ve had yet to sing the praises of Weblogs in the classroom. Over 800 people attended the session, and I’ve had dozens of people come up to me throughout the day wanting to know more about we’ve been doing and how to do it. To top it off Intel produced just a great video about Weblogs at our school which really captured the essence of the potential of the technology. It was just an honor to be a part of it.

On some level, I’m still amazed that our little “secret” finally seems to be showing up on a lot of radar screens. Anne’s session was well attended, and there were at least five other blog learning opportunities. There’s a birds of a feather in a couple of hours that we’ll be blogging I’m sure. Expectations for a serious blogging lineup in Philadelphia for next year’s NECC are already high.

I can’t wait.
