State ISP Annual Meeting

Will try a little more liveblogging today from our state ISP's annual meeting. It's a member-based cooperative focusing on the state university system, independent colleges, K-12 education, libraries, and increasingly local government.

Earlier, the candidates for the Board are giving brief statements. The candidates capture the diversity of the network, we have the CIO for a major urban district, a technology director from a medium sized district, two CIO's from private colleges, a library system technologist, and a technology manager for a county.

Now, the Executive Director is up for the annual state of the network address. With changing technologies and economics, it is important to pay close attention to this to get a sense of where we are headed in terms of costs and new services, so I'll post now and focus on listening to the remarks.
