Another great New Media Consortium summer conference has come and gone. This one was hosted by Princeton University and was attended by more than 500 new media and education technology professionals from around the country. Nearly 90 sessions were offered during the four days and Gina, Marie and I took in as many as we could. An abundance of "link-ful" goodness after the jump...

Now that the dust has settled and the NMC 2007 summer conference is one for the history books, thought I'd do a little link wrap-up.

Many of the presenters submitted their presentations for online posting, and some sessions were even recorded for podcast. The full list of available presentations is on the NMC site: NMC Summer Conference Presentations. Check them out - they've included the poster sessions, too, several of which were facinating!

NMC 2007 - Edward Castronova and the Fantasy Regnant

Keynote - Edward Castronova Keynote - Edward Castronova

As promised, here is Ted Castronova's keynote address from the NMC conference: Edward Castronova: Fantasy Regnant

The "take-away" is this: This century is going to be one dominated by creations of fantasy authors. Ted's not necessarily even speaking about a domination of media or even culture, but rather of our work, our politics and even our daily lives.

It's audio only, but well worth a listen. (I'm looking for his slide presentation online - I'll link it if it turns up).
