The two day Educon 2.2 conference ended on Sunday. The organizers wanted this not to be a technology conference but rather an education conference... "where educators can come together, both in person and virtually, to discuss the future of schools." I was one of the virtual attendees who was trying to learn all I could about how this kind of conference could be useful for math educators. I came away impressed and inspired to continue to work towards setting up an online math conference in the near future. Discussion about it has started at the Mathfuture Google site.
