This year's K12 Online Conference is coming up in October. If you haven't heard of the conference before, this is the explanation from their site about the event.

"The K-12 Online Conference is a FREE conference is run by volunteers and open to everyone. The 2008 conference theme is “Amplifying Possibilities”. This year’s conference begins with a pre-conference keynote the week of October 13, 2008.

This year I was fortunate enough to be selected to present and I'm very excited! It's in the Getting Started strand and called The Google Gamut. The presentation will walk new users through the steps of getting started with the Web 2.0 world. Focusing on the services offered by Google.
