Educause 2009 Day 1

Also went to an Adobe presentation. The Adobe presenter was ok, but the University of Denver dude was exciting! Their Course Media project had a lot of similarities to MSU's myMedia.

Great "point counterpoint" presentation on twitter in education. Reminded me of the Mac commercials (hi, I'm a Mac. And I'm a pc). The image below: Twitter Feed on the left, PowerPoint on the right. Was fun - but hard to multitask by twittering, reading and listening.



Going On - kind of like facebook and twitter for universities. Pretty cool product. The CEO of the company gave us the demo. Didn't get a picture on the exhibit floor, but saw their car outside of the convention center.



Presidium sponsored the massage break place. Unfortunately, I fell out of my massage chair. Yes, I fell out. It's quite easy to do if your feet are tucked under you and you lean back to put something in your purse. Only slightly embarrassed.


Four Winds digital signage. Pretty interesting, but their internet connection was down. Bummer.


Google Apps - only liked this place because the Google employees were in jeans and tshirts.
