Despite rain and several lackluster airline experiences on the part of Delta and Co., Ellie and I have managed to make it back from a wonderful trip to Italy.

It was great to finally have some feedback about our paper from colleagues that shared our interests. I was certainly encouraged by the feedback and questions from the audience and by conversations afterwards. Mario Marais from the South African Meraka Institute alerted me to the existence of narrative therapy, which I am very interested to look into. Martin Wolske from the University of Illinois Community Informatics Initiative told me about some great community/youth work they're doing near Champaign.

There were a lot of great ideas being circulated at the conference, and at least a few blog postings worth of things to write about...so hopefully I can get around to writing about them now that preparation for the conference is over! and, um, after I finish applying to grad schools.
