I am so excited to be headed to the 2009 NYSAIS Education and Information Technology Conference (#NEIT2009) tomorrow at the Mohonk Mountain House in upstate New York.
You can follow us mainly via the NEIT wiki but also via the many social media tools we are using like:
- The official conference Twitter account: twitter.com/neit with hashtag: #neit2009
- our Flickr tag: neit2009
- our del.icio.us tag: neit2009
- our UStream page, but this will also be embedded on the wiki
We hope to have a lot of remote participation, so please join us if you can. We resume our practice of using open space technology for the entire conference. There are no pre-planned sessions, and the entire agenda will be set over the course of the conference. The two exceptions are our keynotes, Michael Wesch and Siva Vaidhyanathan. They’re both superstar speakers, so don’t miss the live or via the UStream – Vaidhyanathan will speak on 11/11/2009 from 2:15-3:30 EST and Wesch will speak on 11/13/2009 from 9-10:30am and 10:45-11:45am EST. If you can’t make it live, the video podcasts will be available.
That’s all for now, watch out for tweets, pictures and more the rest of this week!

Thanks for writing this up Arvind!
There is very unofficial Twitter list of NEIT 2009 attendees at http://twitter.com/BillCamp/neitattendees
I originally created it for my own use but a couple of people found and are following it so if it is useful to others, great!
I had been updating it from the Twitter ID’s listed on the NEIT wiki Who’s Coming page so if I missed someone who would like to be added, send me a Tweet at @BillCamp.
