SanFran MusicTech Summit
At the end of February, I'll be flying out to San Francisco to attend the SanFran MusicTech Summit.
I'll be meeting up with the movers and shakers in the music 2.0
space. It looks like all of the Bay Area players will be there
including folks from Yahoo, YouTube, MusicIP, Pandora, Rhapsody,
Mp3Tunes, Apple, MusicBrainz, iLike, Gracenote and more. The event
is being organized by Brian Zisk, the co-founder of the Future of Music
Coalition. I'll be involved in a panel on recommendations and
playlists. I am especially looking forward to meeting face to
face, all of those smart folks that I have exchanged emails and phone
calls with over the years. It should be real fun.
Oh, this looks very cool. I think I'll attend.
I wonder: Does "researcher" count as "developer"? I mean, the developers wouldn't have anything to develop, were it not for our research, right? So can I register as "developer", rather than "general"?
(I'd be funding this out of my own pocket, so saving an extra $50 helps :-)

Thanks Paul for the very nice comment. Many of the folks out here who have not yet done so in person are excited to be meeting you as well.
As for Jeremy, as a researcher covering the fee out of your own pocket, by all means register as a Developer. Getting thought leaders out to the event is much more important than quibbling over definitions. ;-)
Look forward to meeting you as well.
All the best,
Brian Zisk
