Flash is all well and good but you sure don't want to limit who can see your home page, especially if you're dealing with international audience. Sure you can do sniffers but why not just try good old DHTML. And splash screens? Flashback indeed. Thanks for blogging this conference.

Perhaps the examples we couldn't see due to the wireless problems combined usability with design in a more successful way. I certainly would like to see some examples of college's that he thinks are accomplishing it successfully.

Flashback 1999.

If I'm trying to register for class, I'd rather have a site that "serves my needs" even if it's not memorable! I don't know if I'm misinterpreting the presentation based on your notes, but I'm damn sceptical.
