This year, I have two sessions I&#8217;m gunning for, one in the vein of career hacking and the other a panel on HTML 5.<\/p>\n<p>Now&#8217;s the time when people can go vote on sessions that look interesting. If you&#8217;re in a kind mood, I&#8217;d appreciate some votes and comments on the two sessions I have submitted:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/panelpicker.sxsw.com\/ideas\/view\/2653?return=%2Fideas%2Findex%2F4%2Fq%3ARedMonk\">Your Self-Promotion Career Toolkit &#8211; Making a Fun Job Sustainable<\/a> &#8211; the idea here is wrap up all the stuff &#8220;independent&#8221; oriented career people (myself included) have figured out et by and while still enjoying their job. As the abstract put it: &#8220;You&#8217;re getting kind of older now, and the idea of a sustainable income keeps bumping up against that laptop hipster life you&#8217;ve been leading. How do you keep up that fun, web-wunderkind life and support a (gasp!) family without giving into The Man and getting a straight job?&#8221;<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/panelpicker.sxsw.com\/ideas\/view\/4099?return=%2Fideas%2Findex%2F4%2Fq%3ARedMonk\">Tackling the HTML 5 Challenge<\/a> &#8211; a panel discussing HTML 5 and it&#8217;s impact, pretty straight forward. I&#8217;m hoping to round up some panelist from all over the place. As the abstract puts it: &#8220;HTML 5 is underway and promises to improve the Web. Thus far the standard&#8217;s development process has been rocky. Can there be true industry-wide standards collaboration to dictate a consistent Web infrastructure that benefits all? Is standardization essential to Web innovation? This panel will tackle the HTML 5 challenge.&#8221;\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Again, if you like those topics, I&#8217;d really appreciate your votes and\/or comments. That input counts for 30% of the selection criteria (shared with the SXSW staff and advisory boards), so it actually matter a great deal.<\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s plenty of other folks with interesting panels you should check out too: <a href=\"http:\/\/socialmediagroup.com\/2009\/08\/18\/sxsw2010\/\">Maggie&#8217;s SMG folks<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/fastwonderblog.com\/2009\/08\/17\/want-to-see-me-speak-at-sxsw-2\/\">Dawn Foster on community management<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/panelpicker.sxsw.com\/ideas\/view\/4376?return=%2Fideas%2Findex%2Finteractive%2Fq%3AJosh+Knowles\">applying game design to application UX and usability<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/panelpicker.sxsw.com\/ideas\/view\/2915\">Andrew Shafer on Agile Infrastructure<\/a>, and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.austinstartup.com\/2009\/08\/favorite-sxsw-panels\/\">all sorts of Austinites<\/a>. (Leave a comment with the nifty ones I missed.)<\/p>\n<p>Also, if you&#8217;re <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sxsw.com\/attend\">interested in attending SXSW<\/a>, you really should.
