Sympodium tips?

The library instruction room Sympodium recently was installed at Clarkston. Besides the basic circling, underlining, and highlighting, are any of you using the Sympodium more creatively? Posting annotated pages for students to access later? Drawing hand turkeys?

I haven't used the Sympodium yet, but I am thrilled by the prospect of a high-tech hand turkey.

High tech hand turkey rocks! Even more the low tech.

Unfortunately our instruction room is pretty much just a general purpose classroom this semester so I haven't really had a chance to play with Sympodium. But has great potential as far as capturing annotations and demos. Could be very cool for Distance Learning stuff.

Speaking of Sympodiums, OIT Training is putting on a series of Sympodium training sessions. There's a very basic web based training that I went to and basics and beyond basics hands-on training. Check out the OIT Training webpage for more info.
