MLearn 2008

"I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for all of your support throughout the mLearn 2008 conference. I was very impressed with the professionalism of your txttools for conferences service and as an organiser with a lot of information to convey to large groups of people, your system really made a positive difference to the conference. It left me confident in the knowledge that last minute changes were conveyed to my delegates in a timely and professional manner.
I was very impressed by the simplicity and ease of setting up your system and the ease in which information could be distributed, was excellent. txttools for conferences was very well received by the delegates (over 110 delegates) using the system and those who didn't use the system by and large were international delegates who had chosen to leave their mobile devices at home but were getting the information via friends and other delegates as they were keen to know what the messages were saying!
In a conference focusing on mobile technology such as mLearn 2008, it was wonderful to use interactive mobile technology in a practical and interactive manner and I would recommend this system to anyone organising an event, as an innovative and supportive tool. I look forward to working with you again in the future."
