As a reminder, I'm once again sending out this Call for Papers for a one-day conference to be held at U.C. Berkeley. The Conference will be funded by the Annenberg/CPB Composition in Cyberspace grant. As a result, we won't be charging a registration fee. (Of course, that means that we can't provide meals, but Berkeley offers lots of restaurants for your enjoyment, and you'll be only a short drive away from beautiful San Francisco.) Amy Bruckman (from M.I.T.'s Media Lab and founder of MediaMOO) will be one of our keynote speakers. We look forward to reading your abstracts!
