From the shameless self-promotion department....
Computing In The Clouds: Using Web-Based Applications To Trim Your Budget
Tuesday February 9, 2010 5PM SLT/8PM EDT
Have you been thinking about jumping into the world of cloud computing but don’t know where to start? Chances are you have already. Join host Peggy Sheehy (SL: Maggie Marat) as she dives into the details of cloud computing with Doug Johnson (SL: BlueSkunk Johnson), who has successfully integrated cloud computing into his school district. What do you need to get started? How do you respond to security questions? Is it too good to be true? Johnson will answer all these questions and you’ll leave inspired to take a new look at how you’re managing your own data.

Here is the thing - I am hoping there will be others at this event who have implemented GoogleApps for Education in their district for staff, for students or for both who will be willing to share their experiences for the good of the cause.
While I like to think I know everything and often pretend I do, I can really use help on this one!

I'm currently working on using Google Apps for 100% of student work. This is the first step in creating an online environment for some of our Outreach students. Wish I could go to ISTE.
Hi Todd,
Remember that THIS ISTE event is online in SecondLife - free and open to all. You'd be a great addition to the group!
