Planning for Interactive Austin 2009 is underway. FG SQUARED CEO Steve Golab has recruited a Strategic Web Advisory Panel (SWAP) to start the planning process for the event. By way of the Squared Root blog, and every other form of social media available, we want to reach out to our various communities for input.
Interactive Austin 2008 was a success in gathering current social media enthusiasts with key decision makers from a wide range of companies and organizations. Our aim for 2009 is to build on the successes of the 2008 session and to allow participants to experience the social web in its full application.
So please let us know what is important to you and what you would find of greatest interest. We welcome every insight, suggestion, critique, and request and promise that we will keep you in the loop as the planning proceeds.
