#eltchat Not me - seemed too expensive, but prospect of going to IATEFL next year, and meeting you guys on Twitter means might be soon |
| barbsaka |
12:01 |
@galactadon It's all open! #eltchat |

If I were working for an org, this format would be a great benefit for members. Congrats to those who started eltchat! #eltchat |
