JD,
Found your post through way of GOOG.
Thought I would let you know about my startup, http://www.heekya.com, which is a social storytelling platform. While we’re still in alpha/prototype phase, we think we’re building some interesting stuff (who doesn’t? ;) ) and would love to let you know about it.
All the best,
David
Oh damn! Sorry I missed that event. Was there any notes/video/etc. capturing the content of the event?
Jake, this was a crowd of educators and community folks who, surprisingly, didn’t blog a word about this event. About 60 people all told. I’ll keep an eye out if anything comes to light.
