Add Yourself to the Attendr Map

Learn more about who is coming to the conference and find people with similar interests by adding yourself to the NMC 2008 attendr map.

When you visit the 2008 map, use the Add Yourself link to provide your geographic location and any other information you wish to share. Most importantly, use the tags to describe your new media interests or perhaps what you wish to learn more about at this year's conference -- such as "digital storytelling", "web 2.0", "open-source", "second life", etc. This allows you to find others with similar interests.

To see how it worked previously, look at the one we created for the 2007 Summer Conference :

2006 NMC Regional Conference

November 8, 2006 - November 10, 2006

NMC Regional Conferences are one-of-a-kind events, each very much a reflection of the host institution. In fall 2006, the NMC came to Texas for a very special regional event that was held on the campus of Trinity University and hosted by the Center for Learning and Technology.

Befitting the rich traditions of Trinity and its sister institutions across the southwest, the conference brought together scholars & technologists from across the region to explore new ideas, discuss the issues which surround them, and share stories of successful efforts. Attendees stayed at an historic Spanish hotel located downtown on the famous River Walk, an area steeped in the traditions of Old San Antonio.

NMC 2.0: The Content Is You

At the 2006 NMC Fall Regional Conference in San Antonio, Alan Levine (NMC) and Tom Hapgood (University of Arkansas) provided an overview of the types of features and functionality under consideration for the new web site for NMC. The theme was on very dynamic content, tagging, user generated content. Disciussion with the audience was meant to solicit ideas that would fow into the development process.

The slides from the presentation are available via Slideshare.net , a great way to distribute PowerPoint authored presentations in web friendly Flash format.
