We missed Tim Stahmer at the VSTE conference but still felt his presence through the virtual world as he tweeted and retweeted and commented. Search on #vste14 to find all the tweets.

I know there were others who were unable to attend live and really appreciated the time we took to reach out to the virtual world.

In a way, I am one of those virtual attendees. I am so busy at the conference that I don’t get to attend sessions. Thank goodness for our digital media team that diligently streamed and archived. And for all the presenters who so generously shared their presentations and resources on the Google Plus community. There are lots of comments and photos at the Facebook group.

I am a fan of live events as they generate great energy that can then continue afterwards through the virtual world. My last word to the attendees was to encourage them to continue the energy flow through the VSTE online communities. That will make the conference a complete success.
