Be sure to read and provide any comments or feedback to Jenny Levine's Marginalia Blog post --
The Future Business blog has the following entry, dated November 9, 2009, with the rather audacious title, Virtual is BETTER than in-person for events [5]. The actual blog entry is a more even-tempered comparison and contrast. The first few paragraphs:
LITA's Online Programming Task Force [10] is looking for ways to archive, track, and manage the plethora of possible venues for online programming.
How do you track the stuff you currently post?
We're interested in how you track your own stuff, the presentations you do at conferences, from an organization sponsoring an online event perspective, or from any perspective.
I just wanted to note that the LITA EParticipation Task Force has posted a treasure trove of information and recommendations for holding meetings virtually or as a mix of in-person and online at http://wikis.ala.org/lita/index.php/EParticipation_Task_Force_Recommendations [17].
