The Pervasiveness of Streams (SXSW Panel Edition)

In May, I wrote a post about the “Pervasiveness of Streams” where I posited, amongst many other things, that the Stream is a new data type that poses new challenges for us as individuals, designers and developers:

So when you think of digital presence - the online shadow of your physical/spiritual presence - how would you best want to represent that? The emergence of streams in our digital lives is, in many ways, aligning our thinking in a way that we are only subtly appreciating. I see this every time I overhear someone trying to explain Twitter to another. There’s futility in writing straplines and elevator pitches for something that is quite fundamental to the way we experience life.

Around that time, Brian Solis (@briansolis) and Jackie Peters (@jackiepeters) were discussing the topic and thought it would make a great panel for next year's SXSW.  I'm happy to announce that our panel made it through the first round, but now we need your help.

For our panel to be officially approved, we need the community on our side.  Feel free to read more about the panel here.  If you like the topic, please cast your vote.  If you have questions or comments, post them there, here or send them directly.
