Wednesday night (March 25th) at 5pm Pacific / 8pm Eastern / 12midnight GMT
is our "CoSN Take-Away" show.  Corey Dahl and I invite you to come and
discuss the themes and ideas from the CoSN.org 2009 Conference which was
just held in Austin, Texas. If you attended, come prepared to help us
identify the major themes and ideas from the conference; if you didn't
attend, hopefully you can help us put them into context.  Log in by either

Friday, in a session that won't be live, but for which there will be a
recording, I'll be speaking at the NEBHE.org's "College Ready New England
Annual Conference" on the topic of exploring ways of using Web 2.0
technologies to reach out to low-income, minority, and other under-served
youth ("Outreach 2.0").  There is a discussion thread on this at Future of
Education (
http://www.futureofeducation.com/forum/topics/web-20-for-education-outreach),
and when the recording is released we'll also have a wiki for larger
community participation in gathering resources on this topic.

Have a great week!
