PointScribe Field Dispatch from Closing the Gap

I'm writing this post from Minneapolis where I am exhibiting PointScribe at Closing the Gap. The first night of the conference brought almost all new faces to our booth so that was great to spend the evening introducing PointScribe to people for the very first time. 

During set up earlier in the day, it was great to see old friends in the the form of many vendors who were also getting their booths ready:  Proxtalker, Vizzle, and Tap-It to name a few. All fantastic people with fantastic products. The folks at Tap-It were also generous enough to put PointScribe on one their demo machines and it looks sensational. 

The buzz from the first night of the show was varied---lots of people asked about our drive to point PointScribe on the iPad, others were lamenting that their districts had taken handwriting instruction out of the official curriculum. Many people were surprised to learn that PointScribe does run on a whiteboard/smartboard. (And that always surprises me!)

Tomorrow the show runs throughout the day an I expect more time for more in depth conversations. Tonight, people were getting the lay of the land, enjoying appetizers and thinking about dinner. It was productive, but tomorrow, we'll all get down to business.
