I'm going to propose the following format for each entry:
Title
Abstract
Organizer(s)
The title of the session should click through to a more in-depth description and dialog of what will be included in the session, links to preparatory material, etc. So, for instance, if I were to do a session on my new proposal for a crowd-sourced TV Guide, it might look like
YouTV: The role of participatory television scheduling.
TV guide has shut down its operations in several major cities in the United States, leading to a dramatic increase in clicking during the first five minutes of every prime time hour. How does this effect the screenwriter's guild (lengthened character exposition, increased reliance on flashbacks) and more importantly, advertising revenues? How can citizens band together to provide the episode synopses and critical timing information that help the average American schedule four hours of their every day?

PLEASE ADD YOUR SESSIONS BELOW!
We are Here: Mapping and Community
A discussion on mapping and community, in order to orient our efforts, survey best practices and locate mapping historically and socially. The current trajectory is to begin with a more cultural and social perspectives on mapping, segue into design in a broad sense, and end up at current technical implementations and issues. Josh, David and Jeff might provide some case studies to help ground this or we might focus on emergent case studies/discussion from the group.
