The blog coverage of Computers in Libraries was absolutely awesome! This ITI blog was just the icing on the cake. We were pleased, surprised, and amazed by how many bloggers covered the conference. Next time we’ll do a better job of getting everyone connected (cheaper wireless access would help), and all the blogs linked, so everyone can easily follow all the conference news and happenings.
Check out this link to a new Blogdigger group with more conference postings. Many thanks to Christina Pikas who started it to include everyone who wanted to be part of this collaborative blogging effort.
Of course, don’t forget to check the Blogdigger group in the list below, too, for other coverage.

If you missed the conference, or if you want to re-play some of the best parts, you can purchase a CD of the audio presentations of most of the sessions, along with the PPT files that appeared in the printed presentations book. Conference attendees get a special price of $99, but for those of you who weren’t there, you can still shop online at www.digitalrecord.org. (As of this morning, the CIL 2005 CD was not yet listed in their store, so give them a day or two to update their listings.)
Information Today will also be posting updated slides and files from presentations on the Computers in Libraries web site within the next 2-3 weeks.

We hope to see you again next year, March 22-24, 2006!
You might also consider—or recommend to a colleague—a couple of other upcoming ITI conferences. Internet Librarian will be in Monterey on October 24-26 and offers a similar mix of sessions and speakers, for those who could not join us last week in Washington.
Or if you want more-more-more of those great Web search tips and techniques sessions you heard at Computers in Libraries, take a look at Web Search University (WSU), scheduled for May 17-18 in New York and also in Crystal City on September 19-20.

@dssctr & I presented “Engaging Users with VR” for @FLVirtualCampus. We used @spatialxr to explain VR & offer ideas to show it’s potential for education, esp. exploring mockups of outer space, art museums, avatar journalists, science labs, & more.
