Alt.CES: Dale Dougherty Gives Edu Conference Keynote

Dale Dougherty, MAKE Founder and Publisher, gave a keynote address on education this morning. Maker-in-Chief Sherry Huss writes:

Dale just finished his keynote at the Education Conference at CES. He rocked the room, inspired the attendees, talked about kits, education, and the maker movement. Way to go Dale!

The keynote was getting a lot of tweeting. Here are some highlights (from Twitter member David Kleeman):
