UPDATE: Presentations from the conference are now available from the VideoLinq Mediasite Catalogue.

Brett, Guido, Mahmoud and myself attended the TAFE Qld VideoLinq Learning Technologies 2007 conference last week.

TAFE Queensland have recently invested in Tandberg high definition endpoints across their 50 sites off the back of approximately 20,000 videoconferencing hours across 2006/2007 (roughly 1/2 teaching, 1/2 administrative, mostly using 512kbps).

The theme for the conference was Telepresence and I have to say that it
was certainly 'presence' in the sense that about 80% of the audience were tending to their Facebook profiles or their Second Life avatars during the sessions!

Congratulations go to Ian Fairhurst of Saint Ignatius' College, Riverview (NSW) who won the AARNet giveaway of a Sagem Internet Radio, being presented below by Mahmoud Abo Elwafa.
