Thank you! I'm make sure to pass the info on to our team.

With everything being new to us, I have another question. When can we enter the dome area? I'm sure the mentors probably know, but our family is coming to St. Louis on Tues.

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

This is right up my ally as far as what I really love to do, and I've wanted to go to this seminar since my first year in FIRST, but the past two years my team has arrived in Atlanta too late, and this year we aren't attending. It would be such an awesome experience to gain tips from the best. Next year for sure.

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

My plane doesn't get in until 4:50, so I won't be able to see/hear all of Karthik's antics.

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

I don't think I'll have even left NJ by 4:00 Wednesday but I wish I could attend. Does anyone know when the slides would be published to the website and/or if there is some additional way I can find out what happens without being there?

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

Will the seminar be recorded? My plane doesn't get in until 1am Thursday so I think I'll miss it by a bit. Sounds as informative and fun as ever, though!

I just did a walk through of the presentation, I think everyone who attends is going to have a great time. See you all Wednesday afternoon.
Looks like I'm going to have to manage some time in to see this presentation again! Oy, time is tight...

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

On the note of a video of a presentation, if any team could video it and then maybe put it on youtube and/or their team site that would be amazing. They might even get some youtube partnership program ad revenue to boot.

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

The slides will be available on www.simbotics.org/workshops shortly after the presentation. An older version of the presentation is currently available there right now. I believe FIRST will be recording the presentation and making it available on the WPI Think Tank site.

Several of the presentations have been videotaped/audiorecorded in the past two years, though unfortunately I have not seen any of them posted on the FIRST or archive presentation websites.

Its possible if enough people email FIRST asking to get these posted up online, they might do it this year.

Re: Karthik: Effective FIRST Strategies 2011

My guess is this presentation will not be webacasted as I have yet to see a presentation be webcasted and I haven't seen anything to pursuade me otherwise.
