I had the opportunity to attend the ICTD2010 conference in London last week, and wanted to share a few thoughts and conclusions. Overall, this was a different kind of experience for me, because the conference was primarily oriented towards academic research instead of practice. It's unfortunately pretty rare for practitioners and researchers to overlap, so this was a good opportunity to see what sorts of conclusions are being made about how technology can impact development. At the same time, there was the opportunity to talk shop with others working in the field, and we tossed around some great ideas for cooperation with those who have developed useful tools.
