22, no, 28 COOL (and FREE) Ways to Enjoy #ISTE2015 Without Being There [#NOTATISTE]



Unable to attend ISTE in person this year? Me too. :/

Here are 22 28 cool ways that you can still get in on some of the action. (#21 and #22 are breaking news from +Matt Miller)


1. Follow the official ISTE Twitter hashtag #ISTE2015. Yes, of course, you already knew that. 


Hootsuite, Tweetdeck, Tweetchat, Nurph, Storify, others? You decide how you want to tame the hashtag flood. 

2. Download the ISTE Program mobile app from the Apple iTunes Store 
or the Google play storeand be sure to check the News and Announcements throughout the conference.

3. Follow the #ISTE2015 hashtag on Instagram here (also available on the program app).


People are already beginning to post. Here's a neat one, a video from Rocky Hill School.
