In this session participants were introduced to the concept of Pecha Kucha (pe-chak-cha); the Japanese inspired rapid fire presentation mode with each speaker presenting 20 slides, each on screen for 20 seconds. The seven "flash" presentations focused on post-Web 2.0 apps (Adobe Connect Now, Diigo, Glogster, Google Wonder Wheel, Vuvox and more) for instructional use by educators.

A teacher can create student accounts for an entire class with just a few clicks (and student email addresses are optional for account creation) Students of the same class are automatically set up as a Diigo group so they can start using all the benefits that a Diigo group provides, such as group bookmarks and annotations, and group forums. To protect the privacy of students, student accounts have special settings which only allow their teachers and classmates to contact them and access their personal profile information. Ads presented to student account users are limited to education-related sponsors.
