As a result of reading the Annette Lamb link that Amy posted from the NECC Ning, I joined Wikispaces, which provides free, private wikis to k12 educators. Not only was there a wiki here which followed NECC, but I also found and joined this one: WebTools4u2use - Why WebTools? (Web 2.0), which has a video posted to it by Joyce Valenza:) Small world!
This wiki has archived "stuff" from this year's NECC conference, and many of the names are beginning to look familiar. If you go here, be sure to check out the archived Panel Discussion: "Is There a Place for Media Specialists Who Don't Know Social Media?" - The Future of Education It's offered as audio only or on Elluminate.
That WebToos4u2use is one I found very useful. I participated in that discussion on Elluminate several weeks ago. It was interesting that there was as much information flying by on the text chat as there was from the presenters. It was another one of those things sponsored through Learn Central. I find that a useful place to find webinars.
