OPENing Up: Scenes from the TimesOPEN conference

The social networking tools are changing how we attend conferences.  Megan Garber, in her blog post, provides an interesting view of the TimesOPEN conference and how people interact both face-to-face and virtually. And you think this is just "them", I highly suspect that SLA 2009 will be very similar.  We're using more social tools and using them in real time.  I expect that during our conference that I'll see tweets and photos from other sessions, while those sessions are going on.  Some of us will be attending on session live and another one virtually.
