Web 2.0 Panel

#NCSLI Participating via on-line as a panel member for the NCSL International Symposium Web 2.0 Panel Session 10A on Thursday (7/30/09) at 10:45am in Room 101 (CC), Grand Hyatt, San Antonio, TX.

This should be an interesting panel that will examine how to move NCSLI into the the new social media community to build new relationships and engage the world around us. To do this we need to discover the essence of social networking as it relates to metrology. These are very interesting times.
