2007 Mashup: Lead A Discussion!
Posted by anastasia on 06-05-2007
For those of you attending the Mashup (or planning to), when you register, you can suggest a lunchtime roundtable topic and volunteer to moderate it! We knew we wouldn't be able to cover everything people wanted to discuss in our panels, case studies and keynotes, so we built in time for YOU, the attendee to program an hour. Some of these roundtables will be led by sponsors as well so you can find out more about companies like Gaia and RockYou up close and personal. In the next couple of weeks, we'll send an email to registered attendees with a list of roundtable topics and moderators and let you sign up for where you want to sit at lunch — no wandering around the high school cafeteria trying to find the cool kids to sit with here. Not every topic will make it (for example, if just one or two people sign up for a table, we may not have that table), but it should give lunch a distinctively user generated flavor.
Also, sponsor update. The mobile IM and social networking company VelvetPuffin from Singapore has signed on as a sponsor and will be the fourth and final speaker for the Totally Mobile panel. If anyone knows the mobile market — it's a company based in Asia! We are also excited to announce that Julie Ask, vice president and research director at Jupiter (who is also their mobile analyst) will be moderating this panel.
If you have not registered for the Mashup and plan on attending, I strongly encourage you to register soon. We do have a capacity for attendees and we're getting there quickly.
