The Youth Vote…@SXSW Interactive

Posted by anastasia on 08-19-2008

After reading through the 1,000 + panel and speaking proposals for this year's SXSW Interactive, I'm really excited to see so much youth-specific content (in addition to the Ypulse teen panel – voting ends next week so vote now!). There are tons of other amazing looking panels that indirectly related to youth, but I wanted to call out a bunch that caught my eye (many are friends/readers of Ypulse!). It's like a mini-Mashup at SXSW — speaking of, if anyone attending in the youth space wants to team up for a Ypulse youth oriented party/evening event, hit me up!

    Do you archive previous panel discussions- a summary at the least? Gret topics above and I would love to hear the discussion, but going is not a reality.

    Hey Jennifer. These are just proposed panels for SXSW Interactive this spring in Austin. None of them have been approved or voted in yet. SXSW does podcast some of its panel programming after the event. You can check out their site at http://www.sxsw.com.
