MAJ Chris LeCron – sorry for the delay in that post – As Maj. Baucom stated, many of the presentations are currently available on AKO. We’ll do a wrap-up on what’s available there this Monday, but want to make sure all of the presentations are available first. We hope it will bring some of the educational opportunities PAOs received at the Worldwide to a wider audience – thanks for your feedback and I’m glad you’re looking forward to it!

Is there a wrap up blog posted yet? I had to miss the break out sessions.

I really enjoyed the message mapping breakout session. Although, I’ve seen various ways to map out messages, this session was one of the best ways I’ve seen it presented and it didn’t hurt that the presenter had briefed LTG Caldwell on his message mapping process! I would definitely invite him back if the opportunity exists in the future.

I thought the Twitter coverage was great. So much so that I yelled NO at my computer screen when @salemonz twittered that his battery was dying. In addition to his tweets, @adrianschulte and yours (assuming that @lindykyzer wrote this blog post) were greatly appreciated.

I also read the blog entries, and was looking forward to the AKO collaboration area between the PA and G6 folks. I’m in the J6 and the Army is our Executive Agent, so I clicked on the AKO link as soon as I saw it. I guess it’s taking a while to set up though. Hopefully the discussion will continue long after WPAS is over.

I would’ve liked to have heard about social media coordiantion efforts, policy concerning the use of Social media across the Army, as well as discussing other social media intiatives that are occuring Army-wide. Will there be a social media summit that will address the coodiantion issues ,etc.?

I agree with Maj. Baucom, would love to see more coverage by more people for those of us anable to attend. That said, I was happy to get as much news as I could through other PA professionals. (big thanks to @lindykyzer and @salemonz) Hoping to see the notes/videos/audio posted on AKO soon, I hear that is in the works. Thanks to you and your office for all of the great work.

I appreciate the effort it took to do the work you did in trying to include those unable to attend the conference. I think next year, we should try to have more than one person posting or tweeting. Ideally, if we could have soemone in each session, to include break-out sessions, reporting, readers would get a more inclusive idea about what was going on at the conference. I hope APAC does what it did last year and posts the videos of the event on AKO. Otherwise, I am going to have to get my peers, who attended the conference, to tell me about what was discussed.
Would it be too hard to collect audio files from all of the sessions and post them somewhere? I realize video files may be to large and too difficult to handle. Perhapes, recording and posting would be faster than writing summaries. If people are worried about information sensativity, because of the “no attribution” format, maybe you post them in AKO.

Thanks again for your efforts.
