Dearest Readers,
If you enjoy reading my blog or liked any of the panels and conferences I put together this past year, I would greatly appreciate your vote for my proposed SXSW panels:
Virtual Goods: The Next Big Business Model!
What’s Wrong With Today’s Major Social Networks?
Human and Property Rights in Virtual Worlds
I haven’t put together who the rest of the panelists are yet - I’m waiting to see if any of these panels get selected, but I guarantee any panels I put together will be interesting, fresh, and relevant. Why? Because I really hate wasting peoples’ time. And I really enjoy being a catalyst of enlightenment, in whatever small way I can.
SXSW is my favorite conference of the year. It’s just a really cool mix of product oriented people: creative people who build stuff. These are the kinds of people I love to spend time with. Plus, it’s in Austin and Austin is a super fun town.
Greatest thanks,
s
update:
p.s. To all of you lazy folks who are reading this post but not voting (e.g. most of you), because SXSW uses awesome Ajaxy Web 2.0 technology, it only takes you 1 second to vote. So you have no excuse.

Well, now I’m looking at all 700+ panels and voting. D’oh.
But, voted for your stuff because I think what you did at VGSummit needs an even bigger audience.

I get a server side error when I tried to vote. I am not sure whether it has anything to do with the fact I didn’t register like Lance mentioned.

Hi Susan - I just learned about your blog from AVC. It’s great to see another VC blogger (esp. a woman) out there.
I live in Austin but haven’t been able to make it to SXSW. I’m not being lazy but just can’t deal with another username password to set up to vote so I’ll give you my vote right here: Virtual Goods: The Next Big Business Model.

regardless of whether your goods live in a virtual world, their value has to be real, simply because the desires of customers live in the real world.
soon enough… you have virtual startups, virtual economies, virtual stocks exchange…
now… how about a virtual world bank ? a virtual deparment of treasury, a virtual SEC ?
