The Illinois Online Conference was a great success from my perspective, and I love the format options--they had poster sessions, chat sessions, and live classroom sessions. As someone who has both attended and participated in F2F and online conferences in the past, I highly recommend this one and the TCC Online conference if you're looking to try the online experience out.
Things that are great about online conferences:
* Everything is recorded; so, if you miss a session or if you have two sessions you want to attend that are at the same time, you can still view the archives.
* Drop boxes: IOC allows folks to upload their presentation materials, resources, and handouts to share!
* Variety of sessions: Don't like live sessions? That's fine, you can go to poster sessions or view archives.
I've enjoyed the JISC conference in the past as well, and went to the recent Jossey-Bass (where I was able to attend a Palloff and Pratt session). I'll post later this weekend or early next week with some calls for proposals for those of you interested in presenting at an upcoming conference.
