Janice,
Even though I was blogging the conference, I had some of the same reactions, too.
I know Second Life is probably fascinating but from a practical standpoint, I am doubtful that I can get many teachers interested in using it. So I feel like it's important to spend time on things that they will use. (plus my computer is too slow to run it!)
And though I went to the blogger cafe, not knowing what anyone looks like was a disadvantage! I was starting to meet more people the last day, but then it was over.
I did try twitter during the conference, and am enjoying that. You should join and add your comments from Greece. That would be fun!
(and Megan--I'd love to know more about the del.icio.us session)

It's so funny reading your reactions about your er, reactions because they're quite similar to mine.
I've chalked my blogging (and learning) style up to being concrete. Many of the bloggers you cite are abstract thinkers.
I found note taking in the sessions to be very easy exactly because of how concrete the activity is.
My favorite session in my whole time at NECC was the one on Research with Del.icio.us. It was concrete and taught me a method I hadn't thought to use before.
By now, I think I should be telling you Welcome to Greece! Enjoy your time in Corinth.

Safe trip. Muir School has the blog posted, and our seat belts are fastened. Thanks for taking us along again! PS We also posted the cartoon-making website.
