This past month I’ve done several workshops where I experimented with different audience online interaction tools to engage people in the room as well as a remote audience tuning in through a live video stream.

No more waiting for the Pony Express to deliver a parcel cross-country, no more waiting for web services to communicate from one polling instance to another.

The nptech tag stream (plus other sources) has been imported, so you can comment and vote on tagged items. The tagging community that lies beneath the npdigg structure has taggers, consumers, aggregators, and meta aggregators. There is now a poll to vote on names suggested by people.
