As the 2010 National Gathering kicks off this week, we are excited to launch a liveblog to extend our experience beyond the room we gather in. It’s designed to function somewhat as a collaborative blog, and somewhat as an encased social media platform. We hope it can extend our learnings and conversations together.

Gathering participants can register for the site to post updates. If you are going to be at the Gathering, you can register here. Once you register and log in, you will see a post box at the top of the home screen. Any entries you post will automatically be added to the site without refreshing.

Non-attendees are welcome to participate by leaving comments on the attendees’ posts. No registration will be necessary, though there may be a delay for your first comments to appear until they have been moderated.
