Ok, things are looking up. A big advantage of the online attendence is the ease of channel hopping between concurrent sessions.
- The 2009 Campus Computing Survey, with an valuable commentary from Kenneth Green - headlines were:
• Budget cuts and competing priorities
• Continuing reorganisation of IT departments
• Open Source LMS gaining traction
• Security issues with cell phones and thumb drives, and...

- The third session (Cloud Computing) had technical problems and didn't stream. Is there an irony here?
Ok, acronym of the day: it's come up three times today, so I don't think I can avoid learning it even if I've managed to hide from it until now. ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning).
