Did she take a picture with you, using her MacBook's built-in camera? If so, I'm from California. If not, that lady in Texas feels the same way I do. I have already talked to my superintendent about bringing blogging and e-mail, possibly through gaggle.net, into my computer labs for even more integration, especially with language arts. I think I may have managed to infect him with just a little of my enthusiasm. Was I that private school teacher? Did she take a picture with you, using her MacBook’s built-in camera?

I’m glad I was there. The conversations that happened there - and the connections made - were among the highlights of the conference for me. Perhaps the best thing to come out of it was the suggestion (in the comments of Will’s post) that we organize an edblogger conference. I suggested something similar (including elements of Dave Winer’s Hypercamp concept) a few months ago, but timing wasn’t right, as everyone was hard at work trying to get the online conference rolling. I’m sure it will be some time yet before we’re all ready, but I’m looking forward to it and am ready to contribute when the time comes.

Let's get in touch soon to see what your speaking schedule looks like for the fall (or maybe spring). I'd like to bring you to Minnesota for a day or two of workshops. Later, Barry Hi Will,
