Just a quick reminder to the blognoscenti that the HigherEd BlogCon call for presenters is still open, and will be through the end of the month. Check out the guidelines for submitting a proposal.

According to the call for presenters, “Higher Ed BlogCon 2006 will focus on the use of blogs, wikis, RSS, podcasts, vblogs, and other digital tools in a range of areas in academe.” AND there is a track for Libraries and Information Resources AND that track is being chaired by Meredith Farkas of Information Wants To Be Free. Which reminds me: almost all of the conference will be free as in beer (coincidentally, they are waiving all the presenters’ registration fees–isn’t that generous? ;) ) and relatively free as in freedom, as they tell us that”presentations will be offered under the Creative Commons License.” (Though it isn’t clear which license or if the presenter will be able to choose.)

So where’s my proposal, you ask? I’m hoping that it is buried somewhere deep in my subconscious, because I’m having trouble articulating anything interesting at the moment. But watch for me to sneak something in before the deadline–and you can watch as the submission process is mostly public.
