So thanks to Jeff, I got the idea to publish where I’ll be at NECC. I think it’s a neat idea so we all can see where we’ll be. Come find me, to shake hands. Don’t stalk me. That would be weird.
Next to the titles in italics is my reasoning for attending this session.

That’s it, I have to leave Tuesday after this session I think. We are flying out on that Thursday for Peru, so I have to get home and packed. I will be arriving Saturday morning in time to drop by the edubloggercon.
See you all around NECC!
Well I hope you enjoy Doug as much as I do. And you will ADORE Daneen Frazier Bowen, the actor (actress). If you visit NECC 2005, her session is available in video, and it is so awesome. I still get goosebumps when I think about how pleasantly surprised me and my friend were at this session. Its on my planner too. I don’t know if I should post my planner since I have way too many conflicts still (i am still trying to decide!!!). But I will agree with JenW’s assessment about ANYTHING presented by Leslie Fisher. if you’ve never experienced her, you should try for it too. Sure do wish the planner people would list presenters by what we can export. That may make or break my decisions.
Chris,
I’m looking forward to hanging out with you at NECC! Looks like we could become conference buddies.
See ya in two weeks!
