Tech Playdate, Totally Wired Sex Ed, & The Mega Panel
Just wanted to remind Ypulse readers of two upcoming speaking gigs in January I'm really excited about. I'll be speaking on a panel at The Sandbox Summit at CES January 8th at noon called "The Digital Family: Are We Speaking the Same Language?" Here's the description:
Just because we can put a chip in a doll or give a voice to a truck does that mean we should? Hear from industry leaders about what's working, what isn't, and what's driving their next generation of techno-products.
Moderator: Andrea Smith, News/Technology Producer, ABC News Radio
Panelists: Anastasia Goodstein, Ypulse; Michelle Slatalla, NYTimes; John Davison, Whattheyplay.com; Denise Tayloe, PRIVO
The entire day's agenda actually looks really worthwhile, especially the morning keynote from Gary E. Knell, President and CEO, Sesame Workshop and Elmo. Robin Raskin, who blogs at Yahoo! Tech, was instrumental in creating this very cool event. If you're attending, find me and say hi.
On Wednesday, January 23rd, I'll be speaking here in San Francisco on a panel at the 2008 Sex:Tech Conference, which is focusing on youth. Here's the conference description:
First Conference on HIV Prevention, Reproductive Health, Technology and Youth: Together with San Francisco State's National Sexuality Resource Center, ISIS is hosting this conference with over 400 public health professionals, technology whizzes, youth, youth advocates, and researchers expected to attend. Keynotes include winners of the Fresh Focus Sex Ed Digital Video Contest, CEO of Intercasting, Founder of YPulse.com, cast and crew of podcasters' MidwestTeenSexShow.
I'll be speaking with Derrick Oien, CEO and Founder, Intercasting Corp., Creators of Anthem and Rabble.com, Mobile Networking for Urban Youth in a session moderated by USA Today's Janet Kornblum.
I've also been asked to select and moderate a panel at this year's Youth Marketing Mega Event -- it's supposed to focus on what everyone will be buzzing about at that moment or the next big thing...What do you think I should focus on? Mobile social networking? The new kids' on the virtual world block? Most popular social networking widgets and apps for teens? Send me your ideas and panelist suggestions. I won't begin working on this until late January....but welcome your ideas...
