I'm starting to think about speakers for the big 2008 Ypulse Mashup in San Francisco July 14th - 15th at the Hotel Nikko in San Francisco and need your input. We're definitely going to repeat the Totally Wired Teen Superstar panel with a new crop of a teen tech entrepreneurs. If you know of a teen who has taken a blog, vlog, podcast or other type of technology oriented business from hobby to company or media brand, please let me know.
Last year, one of our pre-conferences focused on music -- what vertical area would you like to see this year? Print/publishing? Mobile? Fashion?
Our big keynoters in 2007 were danah boyd and Henry Jenkins and former Jones Soda CEO Peter van Stolk. Who do you think we should ask to keynote this year?
We will also be bringing back our Bay Area Youth Media Showcase, offering free table top exhibit space to local non-profit youth media organizations -- please get in touch if you're interested.
Ypulse Mashup speakers tend to be from the brand side vs. the agency side - read why here.
All to say, if you want to suggest a speaker or topic idea, email or post a comment. Relive the magic on the 2007 site here. Plus you can watch video from last year's event here.

What makes for "good company policy" for branded youth sites? :D And what about the good and the bad of what's out there today?!
I'm in if you have need of me!
