Just got through with a long day of writing and programming, and I’m spent. I decided to take a minute with Hitchhikr before going out for my cholestorol (4 miles) walk. There are three conferences taking place now, two in Europe and one in Washingon DC. Of the three, ModdleMoot is, by far, the most active. The blogging is mostly in Spanish (or some other euro-tongue), but the pictures are great. I watched the slide show all the way through — I love conferences.
The conference most hitch hiked to remain NECC, Building Learning Communities, and American Library Association, in that order, with Spain’s EduBlog conference a respectable 4th. Receiving more than 500 visits are:
- Laptop Institute
- So What?
- ApacheCon EU
- Colorado TIE
- Congreso Edutec
- MoodleMoot06
- BarCampRDU
- Web20
- HandHeld Learning UK
- Tenn Edu Technology ASsociation Summer Institute
- Discovery Educator Network Regional Institutes
- PodCamp
I might as well throw this in while I’m putting off my walk. I’m in the final stages of moving my web sites over to the new dedicated server. In the process, I ran across the titles of the first workshops I taught after starting The Landmark Project in late 1995. All of these workshops took place in early 1996. It’s interesting how much things have not changed:
- Internet II: Adding Value to On-Line Information
- Creating Your Own Internet Home Page
- Web Authoring
- Video Presentations
- The Internet: One Piece of the Puzzle
- Multi-User Domains (MUDs) & the Educational Possiblities
- Navigating the Internet
- Advanced Home Page Design
The only thing that is not on my list of presentation topics today is MUDs, and they are perhaps the MOST interesting topic for education I have ever been involved in.

Hi Dave,
Did some drumming up of hitchhikr for those attending the ACEC conference here in Australia next month. I thought I would place parts of my presentation on my blog so folks could add comment. I have then tagged it all with the conference tag so hitchhikr visitors can also see “work in progress” progression…
I would appreciate your thoughts on my presentation… This is my first attempt at a conference presentation!! http://blog.brettmoller.com/?p=152
Techno question for you also – my login to hitchikr has stopped working it was under my email address brettmoller@mac.com
I started training teachers to integrate the web into their classrooms in 1999 … no surprises here in the area of “the more things change, the more they stay the same.” The thing that amazes me is that most teachers use computers for attendance and email with almost no problems whatsoever … but many of those same folks still don’t have an adequate grasp of the key concepts required to deliver online content within instruction.
