Whether you are a first-timer to SXSW Interactive (who needs a little more guidance on how to navigate the event) or you are a South By veteran who wants to introduce yourself to new members of this global community, attending this session is a great way to network with a wide assortment of digital creatives. Only requirement for the SXSW Newcomer / Veteran Meet Up is that you not be shy about talking to other people who you don't know yet (but will likely soon become friends). Cash bar onsite.

Since its inception, the SXSW Interactive PanelPicker has provided a unique avenue for everyday movers and shakers to project their voice in front of industry peers. This panel will chronicle the idealist origin and creation of the PanelPicker proposal system and follow its historical path of growth and evolution throughout the years.
In addition, 2011 industry trends and an overview of the current interactive landscape (a product of the expansive PanelPicker database) will be analyzed and dissected. The panel will conclude with a look into the future, and how PanelPicker can be utilized as a tool to help predict and identify emerging interactive industry trends.
