Thank you again to everyone who answered my survey on what sessions to attend at South by Southwest.  Interestingly of all the sessions that take place on Saturday afternoon that I listed, there was only 1 that received no votes.  That leaves me with 13 sessions on March 13.  Sort of auspicious I suppose.  Like I said, I can’t possibly attend them all, but I will use your preference as a guide and ditch any session that seems to be going nowhere, or somewhere I don’t care about, in search of something more interesting.

BTW – the session that received no votes was “What Can Carl Sagan Teach Us About The Web?” So as much as Carl Sagan was one of my childhood geeky heroes I will not attend that session unless he is resurrected and appears.  And if that happens there should be more interesting questions discussed with him at that session than what “Cosmos” can tell us about making better websites.

Before I list the sessions voted for in order of popularity I want to ask anyone who hasn’t voted for Sunday and Monday sessions to go do it and I have left the poll open.

1. Does My Sh*t-Talking Really Help Your Brand?
2. Mobile Technology: What’s New, What’s Out, What’s Next?
3. The Ten Commandments of User Experience
4. User Experience Design Deliverables: Expert’s Choice
5. Opening Remarks: Privacy and Publicity
6. Uprising Tide – Inciting Online Communities into Offline Movements
7. Ze Frank Conversation: The Creative Lifestyle
8. Reality Check on Augmented Reality
9. Booze Blogging: Liquid Conversation
10. Is WordPress Killing Web Design
11. That Game Feels Nice: Tomorrow’s Touch Interfaces
12. Connecting the ‘Dots’ to Create Successful Global Brands
13. Engines of Sociality: 2010 and Beyond

I arrive in Austin at 12:30 this afternoon and should be attending sessions by 2 or so.  Look out for my Twittering and live blogging. Enjoy

UPDATE: I ended up attending 3 of the possible 13 sessions.  Links are above.
