Sometimes useful  resources show up in the most interesting way, and it would be foolish not to take advantage of them.

Today, for example (and in about 12 minutes, actually) I’m helping to support the live Q&A for a live Springboard Series Roundtable Discussion on Windows 8. 

And in the meeting invite for the “backchannel” chat for the moderators, we received the following text:

Hi all,

During the VRT on Friday, if you are helping with moderation, please use this meeting so we can all have a chat window open (no need for audio) so we can communicate about specific moderation issues that are taking place in the live VRT chat window. Here are some common public links that you can use if posters ask about specific resources:
