Joyce Valenza (uber-teacher librarian, SLJ’s Neverending Search ), who will be joining us at the SCASL conference is a scheduled guest on one of my favorite web shows, the Women of Web 2.0 this coming Tuesday night. She and the Director
of Media and Technology Doug Johnson (Blue Skunk Blog fame) of Mankato, Minnesota (another oneof my favorites!!) will be visiting the 2.0 ladies (hence the name of the show Women of Web 2.0, known to many as WOW 2.0.) There is a planned Ustream, and the EdTech Talk website that hosts the live program offers an AWESOME chat for the virtual participants. Someone from the show watches the chat, and always brings our comments into the mix. Plan to join the show on EdTech Talk (or Ustream–they will share details about the Ustream as we get closer to Tuesday.) The show is on just about EVERY Tuesday night at 9:00 PM. EST.
Want to join in but don’t feel so comfy using the site? Email me or chat to me in my gmail (cathyjonelson) and I’ll assist you getting in to listen and even chat if you like. First timers sometimes have difficulty finding the audio stream. Of course if you’ll jump right in the chat and ask for help, many there (Lisa Durff, Lisa Parisi, Carolyn Foote, me, others) will offer all kinds of things to try. I consider myself (and these friends) regulars in the chat room, and all of us go out of our way to assist newcomers. The shows are always powerful, the hour flies by, and you will make many new friends. Best, this Tuesday is ALL ABOUT what we are about–school libraries.
C’mon, represent South Carolina LMS’s THIS Tuesday!
Cathy,
I’m glad you posted about this–I didn’t realize they were the guests next week! I’d love to be there–what a great opportunity.
Thanks
Thanks for the shout out!
“See” you there!
Oh, if any of your readers have topics or questions for the program, Joyce and I would be very happy to know them.

For anyone who has not been involved in a WOW 2.0 presentation, Cathy and those regulars she mentioned are very welcoming indeed. It is alway s a pleasure when I listen to the show being recorded – both the audio and the chat. Once you get everything working (it’s really not hard), you’ll want to come back again and again. It sounds like it will be a great show.
Thanks @Ann. I do very much enjoy the show and am bugged that I have missed the last 2. I will NOT miss this one. I’m glad you can verify that participation is not that hard. Thanks for commenting.
The show from last night is now available to stream form the Wow2.0 Website or to download/subscribe to as a podcast. The chat archive is here as well. http://www.edtechtalk.com/node/3059
