I just finished a marathon real-time blogging session at an interesting conference in New York, titled "Teacher 2.0 - Developing the 21st Century Workforce."

Nitin Julka, David DeSchryver and I blogged about many of the presentations, really fast! I also got to meet quite a few VIPs, including John Bailey, Senior Program Officer - National Initiatives Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation; NBA star Kevin Johnson; Ken Kay Founder and Chairman, Infotech Strategies and President, Partnership for 21st Century Skills; and the highlight- former Xerox chairman David T. Kearns.
This was without a doubt one of the best conferences I have ever attended. If you ever get the chance to go-- take it.
I would love it if you would check a few of the posts out

I think we are the perfect group to help push the thinking of the educational leaders that will be reading this site. I look forward to learning from your comments.
