I think that all conferences should allow this type of back channel networking to take place b/c the back chatter was such a great experience. I have a special education teacher convention in the spring and I'm wondering who I can network and chatter with while I'm attending this event. I don't know a lot of spedutechs, do you? If so, pass them on my way. :) Hi Cathy,

Actually I am totally exhausted by the whole process and agree the best aspect is the social networking.

Hopefully, more conference presenters will allow back chatters and UStreams. We must continue widening the circle. Great thoughts, Cathy.

Perhaps it's a generational thing. I love interacting with colleagues around the world, but a part of me refuses to accept the fact that I might never meet my new friends in the "real" world. Haven't been to Europe since 1995, but...never say never! I'm even giving up our annual visit to Key West to attend NECC in June. Talk about sacrifices! I just couldn't pass up the opportunity to connect with some of my cyber heroes. diane Cathy,
