Pre-session 1 - Technology Shoot Out

For the first time in my FETC career, I thought I would arrive early. 10:45 am and the room is 75% full already. Trying to decide what the best way to take notes is! (Google Doc? Evernote? Springpad? email? Twitter? blog?, dropbox?) I'll let you know!

  1. Steven,

    I was sitting out in the hall, listening to the shoot-out. Thanks for sharing the links I missed! I'll work on making them "clickable" later, but here's the notes, hot off the press.

  2. Steve,

    What did you end up taking notes in?

    And will you be going to the social tonight? I am ducking out early today to head down to the opening and keynote so maybe I will see you there.

  3. Steve, Matt... others,

    Sitting outside waiting for the keynote. Look for you at the social tonight as posted earlier. Turns out Steve used email and sent it straight to me, so I posted it while sitting in the next session (grin) - Paul
