Conversations for a very short lift journey

At the close of our recent JISC LMS Programme Meeting in Glasgow the projects were all set the task of writing a "One Minute Pitch" blogpost. The challenge set by Ben Showers was for them to head back to their project teams and craft a short blog post which sums up:
a) why their project is important;
b) what the main outputs of the project will be; and
c) why others outside of their project team/institution should be interested.

I thought it might be useful to pull together a list of one minute pitches ... gold stars to all those who've done theirs already :)

In addition to these one minute pitches, some projects have done post-event blogposts:

- #CULWIDGETS: http://culwidgets.blogspot.com/2010/09/jisc-lms-meeting-in-glasgow.html

And some people (well a certain person) even managed to do a mid-event blogpost:

If your project has written a one minute pitch which isn't listed above then please let me know by leaving a comment - I'll be adding more as I spot them.

I'm mindful that it's possible not everyone will be aware of this '1 min pitch' task due to early departures and whatnot ... just shout if you want to join in but need clarification :)
