Route 66: Panels I'd hit at 2008 SXSWi

nobody@vox.com(allaboutgeorge) — Fri, 21 Sep 2007 12:12:39 -0700

I read descriptions for all 736 proposed panels at next year's South by Southwest Interactive Conference. Here are at least six dozen and half a dozen more that deserve either five-star or four-star ratings. That means any one would either justify my trip or I will definitely attend them. (This is not to slight any of the other ideas, which include at least six dozen three-star-worthies -- and, hey, you knew I've got a panel proposal you can vote for, right?)

What's that matter? Well, if you like them too, you have less than nine hours -- until 11:59 p.m. EDT today (Sept. 21, 2007) -- to open an account and vote for them at the 2008 SXSW Interactive Panel Picker. O click and see!

Apparently I'm here for South by Southwest again.

And I'm rolling with RPM.

And I think I'm hosting the IRC chat for this year's Bloggies. (That'll be irc://irc.freenode.net/Bloggies)

And I'll be on a new TV show with my band.

And I'll be on a panel and watching all the other kickass panels.
