Don’t Miss the Tech Playground at Midwinter
With so many different things happening at Midwinter you are probably wondering which event is the social event of the conference. Indeed, YALSA’s Tech Playground (Friday, January 23 from 8-10 PM) is the one not to be missed!
Join YALSA for an evening of carnival-style fun. You’ll have the chance to sample fun technologies for teen library services while earning raffle tickets to win a Flip Video camera. From making your own ringtone to voting for America’s Next Top Booktalker via SMS, every activity will offer ideas for fun and interactive programs you can replicate in real life with little funds. (Go here for a full list of the fun.)
This is a ticketed event ($40) but don’t let that stop you! All you have to do is go the Midwinter Registration page and once you are signed in proceed as though you are there to register (again). If you are signed in and have already registered just select “View/Modify” next to balance due. If you prefer you can also call 1.800.974.3084 to talk to a real person.
See you there!
when i first glanced at the heading of this blog post, i thought it said “Don’t mess with the tech playground”. i thought, hey that’s a very cool way of drawing people into the post.
Anyways, this is going to be so cool that nobody can mess with it hehe
The variety of tech we are all going to be able to explore during the evening is really amazing. I can’t decide which sounds most fun – the avatars, America’s Next Top Booktalker, Twitter, the DS, the Flip…. OMG!
the SMS scavenger hunt!! I can’t wait for that one!!!!
