This year is the 10th anniversary of CALI Author, CALI's lesson authoring software.
For those who don't know, CALI Author is a user-friendly software that enables anyone (usually with a little training) to create CALI lessons.
CALI Author fundamentally changed the way CALI creates lessons.
Don't believe me?:

Pre- CALI Conference Webinar, May 22, 2009 @ 3:00 EST
The CALI staff will go over some expected highlights for the 2009 CALI Conference for Law School Computing in this Webinar.
This month's Chicago Lawyer has a great write-up on a friend of CALI's, Professor Ron Staudt (complete with a few quotes from CALI Executive Director, John Mayer).
The rapidly increasing use among law students of social media like Facebook, Myspace, and Twitter has left many law school administrators uncertain of how to approach their students' use.
Our colleague, Gene Koo, points out:
CALI is excited to announce the Conference for Law School Computing keynote speaker: John Palfrey. Mr. Palfrey is Professor of Law and Vice Dean of Library and Information Resources at Harvard Law School, as well as a Faculty Co-Director at the Berkman Center for Internet and Society.
