Last weekend, I had the good fortune to attend EduCon2.2 at the Science
Leadership Academy in Philadelphia. Prior to the conference, I sent a
message to the faculty at school with a link to the descriptions for the
sessions I planned to attend (with the caveat that I might change my
mind). I also gave them the link to my [ http://gdsmstech.blogspot.com/
]liveblog. I've been liveblogging the conferences I attend for a little
over a year now, so this isn't brand new.
There's one thing I'm still wondering about though--I get several emails
every time I do this from faculty about points in my notes. I wish that
they would make these comments directly on the blog, but when I ask, those
folks are pretty adamant about not doing that, even anonymously. I
pointed out that it actually takes more tech skills to copy and paste from
the blog to an email, then write and send their comment than it would to
just add the comment to the post. No go. Just goes to prove, it's not
about the technology.
For what it's worth, here's[

blog post I wrote about EduCon while preparing to report to our program
committee this afternoon.
Cheers!
