Atlantic Conference 2009 - It's worldwide
October 9, 10, 11...
Attend from home. Or travel to a nearby
Participation Group.
The last
conference, in Halifax, was a big
success. But
you had to get onto an airplane to attend. This time around, the
conference will be a live, online participatory experience for
everyone. If you're tech savvy, sign on from home. If you need help or
just want to meet likeminded folks, travel to the nearest gathering, or
as we call them, Participation Groups. These PGs will have technically
savvy
folks who will hold a gathering and all in the room will participate
live with the web-based conference. It will be like a mini conference.
Same speakers, same participation, only you'll have someeone tech savvy
to run the computer pograms, making it much easier. Learn

Click this
slide show. This
is exactly the experience you'll have of seeing the presentations from
the speakers. (I promise, they'll be a lot more exciting than my slide
show here!!) You'll see the presentations in the weeks
leading up
to the October 10th weekend, then you'll be able to get online and hear
them speak live about their work at appointed hours. You'll be able to
call in, or use a live chat program to ask questions of both these
folks and other users. It's a different way to attend a conference, but
it will be just as interesting.
