Last week I flew to Chicago to participate in the Third Coast International Audio Conference as a New Voices Scholar.  I wanted to blog during the conference but technical difficulties and constant person to person interaction delayed that up until now.  I did tweet alot.  And for me that’s a giant social networking step since twitter was the last application I thought I would ever be a part of.  But I’m learning to take it as it is, another way of communicating with folks that you are interested in.  Over the week, I’ll share some of my thoughts on public media through the context of the conference plus a few interviews with some of the great people that I connected with.
