Speakers confirmed for FailCon
Published on June 23rd, 2009 by christian
I’m taking the next week or so to nail down speakers for FailCon. I’ll be adding them up here as I know, so keep your eyes on our speakers page.
I just finished chatting with Kavin, the CEO over at LOLapps, and he’ll be joining us for my favorite talk of the day so far, a panel on how NOT to build social apps. :D He’ll be joined by Kevin Barenblat, CEO and Founder of Context Optional, and Vinay Mahagaokar, the Head of Director of Product at RockYou. I’m talking with Dave McClure about moderating the panel, though we haven’t confirmed yet, and have invites out to PlayFish, Buddy Media, and Appssavvy to join in the discussion.
My partner in crime on this event, Diane, has also been talking with the guys over at GetSatisfaction. Lane and Thor will be tag teaming with us to help kick start the day! I’m excited to welcome them on to the agenda.
I’ve still got about a half-dozen slots open, so do let me know if there are great C-level folk in the social web world that you want to see there. :)
