Couldn’t make it to Monterey? Guess what — many of the presentations and handouts are here: http://www.infotoday.com/il2004/presentations/default.shtml
I’m off to Denton tomorrow for our last weekend of class for the year! I’ll write from there. I’m presenting my paper about Blogs and virtual communities to the class Friday morning.
