Today, I'm attending the final day of the Internet2 Spring Meeting in Washington, DC. Right now, the main session is going on, but I hate sitting at the back of the room straining to balance on one of the chairs and trying to see over everyone's head to squint to view the PowerPoint slides. Instead, I'm in a comfortable chair in the lobby, watching the whole thing via the live stream, which of course will be available long after they finish talking. And, I'm not the only one. At the same time, I'm working on a presentation I have to give tomorrow first to a K-8 faculty and then to their PTA. The topic is social networking and Internet safety. So many great resources, including access to full transcripts from the latest Congressional hearings. Meanwhile, I've got my twitter stream coming in and came across this poem posted at the Library of Congress Poetry 180 project. I don't know what all this means but surely people who don't live in this world are missing something, right?
