The meeting was set up to show teachers how to use the technology and Ddraig-goch would like to thank the following teachers who gave up 2 hours of their time to join in.
Joe Dale (8pm UK)
Lisa Durff (3pm USA)
Jane Nicholls (7am New Zealand)
Jason Hando (5am Australia)
Kristin Hokanson (3pm? USA)
I know from e-mail that Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach was hoping to attend as was Rachel Boyd. Maybe we will try it out again to help others into the possibilities of using Flashmeeting - who knows!
There were some interesting stats generated which are quite illuminating if a bit embarrassing, the person who spoke the most!!! ( I wonder who?)
and the person who was text chatting most ( I wonder who?)

Sorry I didn't make it. I am still very interested. I had gone for a 30 minute bike ride that turned into 3 hours. I just couldn't stop riding.
Ask me again!
Oh no! That is embarrassing! I was chatting in both our Skypechat backchannel and in Flashmeeting. I was generally trying to foul you all up - did I win a prize for that?
Let's do it again with Rachel and Sheryl! What about Kim Cofino, Terry Freedman, Ewan McIntosh, & us(I'm an oldie, but you're a young one).
