Week 4, Thing #9

I used the "Edublog" Award-Winning Blogs and found a link to a site called "K12 Online Conference 2007". The conference is still in progress as of today (Oct. 21) and the topics covered in the online conference parallel what I'm trying to learn in School Library Learning 2.0. The description:

"The K-12 Online Conference invites participation from educators around the world interested in innovative ways Web 2.0 tools and technologies can be used to improve learning. This FREE conference is run by volunteers and open to everyone. The 2007 conference theme is “Playing with Boundaries”. This year’s conference begins with a pre-conference keynote the week of October 8, 2007. The following two weeks, October 15-19 and October 22-26, forty presentations will be posted online to the conference blog (this website) for participants to download and view. Live Events in the form of three “Fireside Chats” and a culminating “When Night Falls” event will be announced. Everyone is encouraged to participate in both live events during the conference as well as asynchronous conversations."

I posted the RSS feed for the conference on my own blog instead of on my bloglines account. For me it's a little easier to access this via my blog and, besides, it gave me the chance to try out different features that can go on a blog.
