I thought it might be nice for us to share which workshops and/or concurrent sessions we are thinking about or planning to attend at NECC in San Diego. Below are the sessions I currently have in my planner. On Thursday, 7/6, in the 3:30-4:30 time block, I currently have 4 things. Obviously I'm going to have to choose 1 at some point. Maybe if someone else is planning to go to one or more of these, that will make my decision easier. Each title below is a link, in case you want to read more about the session. I've already seen Dewitt Jones several times, so I'm not going to go to that keynote, although his work is good.

Wow! I know what you mean about being overwhelmed Lori! I definitely haven't gotten mine that narrowed down but it is a big help to know you will be focusing on the ethicas and podcasting angles. Both of those are very interesting and current topics. Thanks for posting because now I can keep that in mind when planning my schedule! I will try to formalize a schedule over the next couple of weeks and put it up here as well!
