If you’re like me, then Twitter is a channel you rely on everyday to find people who are discussing topics that you find both interesting and relevant to your life. Over the past few months, I’ve made myself available via the @isteconnects account to help all of you answer questions about #NECC09. By reading your blogs and tweets I’ve learned a tremendous amount about Educational Technology and the aspects of it you find most compelling; I thank you for all the tips and education you’ve given me about your professional fields and passions.

I’d like continue this networking process by connect all of you together, especially those of you attending NECC 2009, because we will have the opportunity to meet IRL (in real life) at various tweetups and events taking place in conjunction with NECC. Embedded in this post is a Google Docs spread sheet you can add yourself to so you can start connecting with the Ed Tech Universe on Twitter. Just click this link and enter your info and it will show up below!

Thanks for setting this up, Joe! This is the first time I’ve seen a Google spreadsheet setup for public editing like this. I’ve heard and read about how you can do this theoretically, but it’s great to see it in practical use! :-)

Will you be following those who add themselves on the @isteconnects twitter account?

This is a fantastic idea! So great to see so many coming to NECC. I’ll be a first-timer myself. Really looking forward to it.

Hi, Joe, I’d love to see how you embedded the google spreadsheet in your blog. I’ll bet it’s easy, as most of the google apps are, but I haven’t explored that feature yet. Will you post a quickie tutorial or point me in the right direction? Thanks!

Thanks for putting this together, Joe. I agree that this is a great idea. I’m looking forward to another educational and fun NECC.

@ Sharon, you’ve inspired the isteconncets team to put up a quick tutorial on how to embed Google spreadsheets in Wordpress posts. I hope everyone finds it useful!

Hi,

How about setting one up for those on Plurk?

Jim

This is way cool. I didn’t see my edit until I refreshed this page….but then, there it was!

Do you think we could add a couple more columns on here for name, location and role? I thought about just starting them but figured it wasn’t mine to alter. Just an idea.

@Jan Zanetis, Glad you like it, the spreadsheet can take up to 5mins to refresh.

@Annelise and Jim, Obviously the more info the better, but for now we are trying to keep this sheet twitter centric. I know this might cut out some people, but once this has run it’s course I don’t see why we can’t add everything in what would probably be a new post. Thanks for considering our wishes ahead of time I’ll be sure to contact you when we’ve decided to log new info.

Wow, very cool! Now we just need GPS devices and IDs so we can see where everyone is napping or drinking! :)
