So, ICE conference is off to a very nice start.  Workshops began at 8:30 AM today, and we only had to wait until 9:15 AM until the internet was up!  Whew...that was a long 45 minutes.  But it's been flying all afternoon with no bandwidth problems at all (knock on wood).

I am working as a tech support volunteer this year, and since things have been running so smoothly, I was able to sit in on several workshops.  I am truly amazed, not with the technology out there, but how people are using it.  To get a preview of the rest of the week (and a postview of some of today's sessions), visit the conference ning.  You don't have to attend the conference to sign up...the more the merrier!

I was able to pop in to several presenters' workshops today.  Meg Ormiston did a great session on social networking.  Take a look at her handout for some awesome ideas.

It was also fun to sit in on Charlene Chausis' session, Focus on Educational Moments In Your Classroom.  I walked in just as she was doing her patented "jump in the air" shot.  What energy she has.  One of the best presenters I have ever seen!

I walked in on many other workshops, all of which were excellent.  I can't wait to see what is in store for tomorrow!
