Mashing Up Tech to Connect with NECC!

We had a fab meetup tonight with the jokaydian NECCers, and it was a priveledge to hear Konrad talk about his work around Blogging Communities in the Classroom again. His work is so inspiring!

Equally inspiring was the way the jokaydians managed to pull off a last minute plan with style. I am so proud of HeyJude, slammed, Al and Konrad for flying the jokaydia flag high and walking the talk of our community by sharing and then sharing some more! It’s been great to follow their journey over at NECC, but even cooler to be a part of it like we did tonight.

About 15 avatars dropped in to Bar jokaydia click here (SLurl) to hear Konrad’s presentation, and with a combination of audio and slide wrangling from HeyJude and the Ustream that Will Richardson was providing, I think everyone managed to get a decent audio stream. And of course, there was a great back channel chat going on in both Ustream and at jokaydia. You can view some pictures of the inworld part of the session here.

Ya gotta love technology – from my living room I am able to connect with some amazing people! A Huuuuge thanks again Konrad, Judy, Dean and Al! You are all stars! ;)

Thanks to Will Richardson for the Ustream too – which means everyone who couldn’t make it can still get a taste of NECC!
